This week in MathOnco 227
Experimental design, evolutionary dynamics, spatial heterogeneity, clonal fitness, and more
“This week in Mathematical Oncology” — Sept. 19, 2022

From the editor:
You may have noticed — it’s not Thursday!
We decided to release this week’s edition on Monday to celebrate one of the biggest meetings in Math Onco: Society for Mathematical Biology. To aid in the celebration, Maximilian Strobl has written a blog post describing the past year in Math Onco artwork.
Today’s edition features articles on experimental design, evolutionary dynamics, spatial heterogeneity, clonal fitness, and more.
See you next week on our regularly scheduled Thursday morning,
Jeffrey West

Showcasing the creativity of the MathOnco community
The Mathematical Oncology Blog
Maximilian Strobl: “It all began with one of those fateful lunchtime conversations. “Wouldn’t it be cool if the mathonco newsletter had cover art? We could showcase cool visualizations created by the community and provide a platform to exchange ideas, tools and examples of mathonco data visualization – or just goofy output from simulations gone wrong.” As with many lunchtime ideas, the concept sounded great, but the work involved seemed a little daunting: sure, it was easy enough to think of a few initial examples, but was it realistic to think we could keep this up every week? Well, we tried – and 67 pieces of artwork later we are still going.“
The newsletter now has a dedicated homepage where we post the cover artwork for each issue. We encourage submissions that coincide with the release of a recent paper from your group. This week’s artwork:
Artists: Various; Curated & solicited by Maximilian Strobl (@StroblMAR)

If you’re interested to learn more about this project and get a behind the scene peek, check out our blog post. Thanks to the many of you who have contributed to this project over the past year, and to Jeffrey and Sandy for their help as part of the editorial team. If you have any feedback or would like to submit artwork, feel free to reach out to me at any time, or catch me at SMB this week!”
