Brain food on our brain drainage system to help keep you healthy, with @jonykipnis.bsky.social erictopol.substack.com/p/how-our-br...

Is the point of mathematical research to know *what* is true or to know *why* it's true? Emily Riehl lays out a strong argument - and what it has to do with AI - along great advice for the field in @science.org www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Finally, someone has solved a real problem with AI! No more having to take a paper in the format for a journal that rejected you, and reformat it for a new journal. Well done!! formatmypaper.com

A real challenge for science. Some good suggestions here but no silver bullet answer

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible go.nature.com/4mjXRg3

Abstract submission is now open for #MathOnco25! So please go ahead and submit asap to have a chance of getting one of our travel awards: mathematical-oncology.org/mathonco25

A packed opening plenary from one of the @smbmathbiology.bsky.social Canadian giants! Mark Lewis “One equation helps solve three paradoxes in the spatial ecology of predators and prey” Mark also wins the prestigious Akira Okubo Prize!! #SMB2025

Next up is former student & friend @stroblmar.bsky.social presenting new work with @cancerconnector.bsky.social on “Bridging the gap: What preclinical experiments can teach us about cancer drug scheduling” #MathOnco #SMB2025

Over a month ago a bunch of #MathOnco and #AIOnco researchers got together in Syracuse to discuss how #AI may and may not change the field. Here are some thoughts in a collective effort led by @rrockne.bsky.social:

Emerging ‘co-scientist’ systems use teams of chatbots to mimic the deliberations of a research group. Do they really help? https://go.nature.com/4l3Lzbz

Attending a conference entitled, The Future of Cancer Research: Unleashing the Power of Machine Learning, taking place in the historic city of Syracuse. Organized by @cityofhope.bsky.social @sergiobranciamore.bsky.social, Andrei Rodin, Konstancja Urbaniak and @rrockne.bsky.social

genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.... Quite an indictment of some of the current single cell "virtual cell" foundation models. Even for the relatively mundane applications, cell labeling, batch correction etc, they are poor compared to much simpler & cheaper methods.

What is the difference between PINNs, Universal PINNs, Neural Differential Equations (DEs) and Universal DEs? Don’t miss this blog post that I wrote with a bunch of amazing colleagues from a #MechanisticLearning workshop in Canada mathematical-oncology.org/blog/learnin... @ocbe.bsky.social
