Almost forgot to mention last afternoon's #CSBCPSON23 talk by colleague and friend Andriy Marusyk describing projects where stroma drives evolutionary dynamics in cancer in collaboration with Jake Scott (Cleveland), @sandy and yours truly #MathOnco. Notice the elephant slide and the importance of #TeamScience

Had the privilege this morning of introducing today's #CSBCPSON23 keynote speaker, Kandice Tanner from the #NCI. We got to see some cool #biophysics work on metastasis using #ZebraFish as an experimental model

Stacey Finley, from the University of Southern California, shows data-driven #MathOnco work relating the metabolism and phenotypes of macrophages in #colorectal cancer. These phenotypes are related to pro-and anti-tumor behavior so it suggests ways by which we could make tumor microenvironments less cancer-promoting
#CSBCPSON23

Patient #advocate and #melanoma stage 4 #survivor Tom Stutz tells us about his story and drives home the importance of scientific research at #CSBCPSON23

Thought provoking talk this morning by Itai Yanai from NYU emphasizing the importance of developmental programs in constraining/guiding cancer evolution #CSBCPSON23

Poster session this afternoon with Mat Froid showing our work with Russ Rockne (City of Hope) modeling the #JanusEffect in Leukemia and how treatment with new drug #miristen can help if guided by a #MathOnco model #CSBCPSON23

Some #MathOnco at #CSBCPSON23 now with the one and only @sandy describing an #AdaptiveTherapy approach for #OvarianCancer

So #CSBCPSON23 is on its way with NCI's Dan Gallahan opening it and keynote by #Harvard 's Galit Lahav modelling in vivo p53 dynamics and treatment resistance. Also a picture of coffee for no good reason

Well, first day of #CSBCPSON23 meeting in Bethesda starting today. Some of the finest #MathOnco models and physical and systems biology approaches in cancer will be presented in the next 3 days
