Grateful to meet #MathBio peers and present our work on tumor-immune dynamics in #lungcancer at the American Mathematical Society Spring Southeastern Sectional Meeting FSU Math Dept #FSU #HCB. Research mentor: Sandy Anderson Moffitt Cancer Center. Thank you Skylar Grey & Daniel A. Cruz (he/him) for organizing the talks!

AMS Southeastern Sectional Meeting this past weekend at The Florida State University! Thank you Daniel A. Cruz (he/him) for putting together a wonderful session!

The 2nd Diversity of Math Bio Summer Virtual Seminar Series starts TOMORROW, June 4! This SMB - Society for Mathematical Biology series highlights the diversity of mathematical biology research and the diversity of researchers in the field. Tuesdays at 8:00 PDT / 11:00 EDT / 17:00 CEST via zoom.

We have an event THIS FRIDAY! "The Mathematics of Mathematics (#MetaMath): An Introduction and Some Examples" is now available! (youtube.com/watch?v=aMmbNX…) Discuss the talk with her at our Café con Leche event on June 7th at 12 ET Register at: tinyurl.com/lathisms2023-24

Forgot to mention it, but we have a preprint under review introducing a general-purpose computational pipeline that utilizes topological data analysis to generate quantitative, multiscale descriptors which capture the shape of data extracted from multichannel microscopy images.

I also have another preprint with my UF collaborators which introduces an algorithm that adapts a well-known data assimilation method (EnKF) to dynamically update the "microstate" of an agent-based model with "macrostate" observations from a target biological system.

Dr. Gandhi will talk about "Characterizing morphology transitions in biological systems with approximate symmetry" and Maisha will talk about "Multihost Pathogen Creates Ecological Links Between its Hosts and Influences Host Population Dynamics". We hope that you can join us!

Looking forward to #SIAMAN24 this week! Friends and colleagues: please let me know if you are around!

Tomorrow (Jul 16): Dr. Kristina Wicke (@KristinaWicke) from New Jersey Institute of Technology will present on “Tree balance in phylogenetic models” and Dr. Celeste Vallejo from Simulations Plus, Inc. will present on “An Introduction to Mathematical Modeling in Drug Development”

Dr. Van Pham from University of South Florida will present “An extendible use of DNA tensegrity triangle model” Dr. Alex Ochoa from Duke University will present “Models for diverse human genetic data”

Dr. Malena Español Malena Espanol from Arizona State University will present “A Deep Neural Network Approach for Electrical Impedance Tomography” Rachel Sousa from UC Irvine will present “Identifying Critical Immunological Features of Tumor Control and Escape Using Mathematical Modeling”

I'm excited to formally announce that I'll be joining the Mathematics Department at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in the Fall as an Assistant Professor!!
