Mathematical Modelling of Microtube-Driven Regrowth of Glioma After Local Resection

Explore a 21-minute conference talk on the mathematical modeling of glioma regrowth following local resection, with a focus on microtube-driven mechanisms. Delve into the research presented by Alexandra Shyntar from the University of Alberta as part of the "Mathematics of the Hallmarks of Cancer" series at the Fields Institute. Gain insights into the complex interplay between cancer biology and mathematical modeling, specifically addressing the challenges of glioma recurrence after surgical intervention. Discover how microtubes, specialized cellular structures, contribute to tumor regrowth and learn about the mathematical approaches used to analyze and predict this phenomenon. Enhance your understanding of the intersection between oncology and applied mathematics in this cutting-edge presentation scheduled for August 19, 2024.
