“This week in Mathematical Oncology” — Dec. 1, 2022
> mathematical-oncology.org
From the editor:

Hope you had a great week off (Happy Thanksgiving!) — and now, back to your regularly scheduled newsletter.

Today we feature articles on evolutionary theory in cancer, fixation probability, stochastic dynamics, and a paper of our own on agent-based models.

Enjoy,

Jeffrey West

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:

Based on the paper: “Spatial genomics maps the structure, nature and evolution of cancer clones” in Nature

Artist: Artem Lomakin (@LomakinAI)

Caption: "When a tumour grows, mutation and selection create a mosaic of different clones. From sequencing studies, we know that such clones exist, but so far, we have not been able to see them. Here we present a method – a combination of fluorescent microscopy and mathematical modelling – that sheds light on the spatial evolution of cancer, charting the intertwined patterns of disease progression."
