Explore a 13-minute lecture on the traveling wave speed and profile of a "go or grow" glioblastoma multiforme model, presented by Aisha Tursynkozha from Nazarbayev University. Delve into the mathematical aspects of cancer progression as part of the "Mathematics of the Hallmarks of Cancer" series at the Fields Institute. Gain insights into the complex dynamics of glioblastoma multiforme, a highly aggressive brain cancer, and understand how mathematical modeling contributes to our understanding of tumor growth and spread. Learn about the "go or grow" hypothesis in cancer cell behavior and its implications for tumor progression. Discover how traveling wave analysis is applied to study the spatial and temporal evolution of glioblastoma tumors.
