A Mathematical Framework for Modelling the Metastatic Spread of Cancer
Invasion and metastasis are two of the hallmarks of cancer and are intimately connected processes. Invasion, as the name suggests, involves cancer cells spreading out from the main cancerous mass into the surrounding tissue, through production and secretion of matrix degrading enzymes. Metastatic sp...

Mariusz Bodzioch (Uniwersytet Warmińsko-Mazurski w Olsztynie)
Chemotherapy remains a widely used cancer treatment. Acquired drug resistance may greatly reduce the efficacy of treatment and means to overcome it are a topic of active discussion among researchers. One of the proposed solutions is to change the therapeutic target to maintenance rather than complet...

On the Role of the Objective in the Optimization of Compartmental Models for Biomedical Therapies
In the talk we review and discuss results obtained through an application of tools of nonlinear optimal control to biomedical problems. We start with introducing a general form of the compartmental model and then discuss various aspects of its dynamics (such as growth and interaction terms), mode...

Monika J. Piotrowska i Marek Bodnar (MIM UW)
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive type of brain tumor in adults, with a median patient survival slightly above one year, despite aggressive combination therapy with the alkilating agent temozolomide (TMZ) and radiation therapy. Phase III clinical trials of the combination of be...

Scaling laws and evolutionary dynamics in cancer: Results and open mathematical problems
Many natural systems are complex entities composed of a large number of interacting individual elements. It is remarkable that they often obey the so-called scaling laws. These ‘laws’ relate an observable quantity to a measure of the size of the system, such as its volume or mass [1]....

Recent Developments in Neurotechnology
The idea of moving robotic devices just by thinking, through use of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), has been research area that attracted attention since 1970s. BCI systems are used to allow users to communicate with computers and other external devices using brain signals. Instead of depending on...

I will talk about discrete-time SIS models which were based on their continuous counterparts. The first type of models reflects the dynamics of epidemics in a homogeneous population - in this case two-dimensional systems are used. The second type of models corresponds to dynamics in a heterogeneous ...

Structure and vulnerability of weighted empirical food webs
Species extinctions are compromising ecosystem functioning and services around the globe. The effects of species loss propagate over food webs (trophic networks). Food webs are directed graphs that represent feeding relationships, encoding matter flows as links between groups of species in an ecosys...
