Save the date #MathOnco25! October 29th-31st in Tampa, Florida. Directly before the 13th IMO Workshop (November 3rd-7th) - stay the weekend and brainstorm the beaches! More information to follow but @evoltherapy.bsky.social will be a key theme @mathonco.bsky.social @moffittnews.bsky.social

What a great #Abelprize week again! Congratulations Prof Kashiwara!

We have started a new monthly newsletter, the OCBE newsletter!!! where will be showcasing our recent publications and other relevant news. Check out the first edition here: www.med.uio.no/imb/english/...

At Princeton University we are being clear about our continued commitment to diversity and nondiscrimination, in full compliance with law (as opposed to executive order) and consistent with our ethical responsibilities as educators for the entire nation. www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2025...

On my way to @princetonupress.bsky.social to speak in a workshop on Machine learning for Clinical Research hosted by Olga Troyanskaya and Vessela Kristensen at Princeton Precision Health pph.princeton.edu/events/2025/... pph.princeton.edu/events/2025/... @ocbe.bsky.social

I am very excited to start my new roles as associate professor @uio.no @ocbe.bsky.social and group leader at the Oslo University Hospital (Departmemt of Medical Genetics). This would have not been possible without the support and help of all my mentors, colleagues and collaborators. Thank you all!

First Abel prize to a Japanese mathematician: Masaki Kashiwara abelprize.no …and first time I am invited to the Abel Prize Banquet! Anybody has a smoking I could use? 😎

Learning Dynamics with Neural Networks with @alvarokohn.bsky.social @gibin.bsky.social and others: mathematical-oncology.org/blog/learnin...

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

Today, we all stand up for science! To support our colleagues in the US and to remember that public access to data and knowledge, academic freedom and science- and fact-based society can never be taken for granted standupforscience2025.org @standupforscience.bsky.social @manuelazucknick.bsky.social

Ten simple rules for fostering creativity in research labs from Matthias C. Rillig journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol...

This law is totally insane! Let's push back this nonsense! www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Happy to be part of the scientific committee of this Turkish initiative for young mathematicians from all over the world to organize their own research meetings. I look forward to many cool proposals!

I am excited to join the editorial board of JCO Clinical Cancer Informatics. Looking forward to more mathematical and computational oncology submissions ascopubs.org/cci/about/ed...

Last post of this year on the #MathOnco blog by @younessazimzade.bsky.social for those of you using clinical trial data and interested in modeling tumor #response to treatment mathematical-oncology.org/blog/tumor-m...

Follow this interesting and needed discussion about peer review. My take, let’s each of us in our own roles keep all the good things but also start eliminating all the negative aspects and bad practices related to peer review, which are many!

Excited to share this mini-review on dynamic mechanical stress inference of tissues written with @borgesaugust.bsky.social!! doi.org/10.1042/BST2... (1/8)

Congratulations also to the supervisors @alvarokohn.bsky.social and Arnoldo Frigessi!

Congratulations to Dr Even Myklebust for a wonderful PhD defence! @ocbe.bsky.social www.med.uio.no/imb/english/...

We're continually surprised by which scientific investigations lead to practical benefits. This is the story about how investigating how electric fields affect bacterial growth led to the development of the stalwart chemotherapy drug cisplatin 🧪

I have been very fortunate to supervise the PhD thesis of Even Moa Myklebust. He will defend his thesis on December 9th in front of a superb committee and will do his trial lecture about Bayesian neural networks in biomedical applications. Don’t miss it if you are in Oslo @uio.no @ocbe.bsky.social

I feel like not enough people know about Quarto for creating documents. How it works: Write in markdown and use Quarto to convert it to html, pdf, epub, ... I produce my books with Quarto (web + ebook + print version). But you can also use it for websites, reports, dashboards, ... quarto.org

As my follower count creeps towards that of the old place, an unashamed plug for the FREE online textbook I wrote for #mathbio students. 'Introducing Mathematical Biology' is FREE, interactive, accessible and FREE. Please feel free to share with students. sheffield.pressbooks.pub/introducingm...

OCBE is preparing to leave the dark social media. To help you connect with our community here 🦋, me made a starter pack with present and past OCBE members, a list that will probably will grow soon 😊 go.bsky.app/6bqMnLQ

Resharing my attempt at a #mathbio starter pack for those (millions?!) of people who've joined in the last week! Please let me know if you'd like to be added (I've not kept up with the incoming hordes well) go.bsky.app/GVkxwBv

I made a starting package of the #mathonco community. Let’s all get together again. Let me know if you would like to be added. go.bsky.app/UpYF6Ak

If you are looking for a postdoc position in computational biology, this one highly recommended!

We strongly suggest that academic publishers and other platforms that host research rapidly implement a Share to Bluesky button for their articles. Here's how: docs.bsky.app/docs/advance... #AcademicSky #HigherEd #Altmetrics

The new interview with Heiko Enderling youtube.com/watch?v=WBMz...

I’ve started making a starter pack for computational #cancer! Let me know if you’d like to be added or know someone who should be go.bsky.app/N6moBmG

For those of you here interested in #MathOnco (and maybe #SomaticEvolution #CancerEvolution) this is an important resource, and since it is a newsletter you can keep up to date with the field whether you are here or twitter (or any other site): thisweekmathonco.substack.com

Don’t miss this great summary of our latest preprint

#MathOnco blog post by Prof. Thomas Hillen about #MathOnco interviews, his new project to spread the word about mathematical oncology...and mathematical oncologists! mathematical-oncology.org/blog/math-on...

Just on time for labor day weekend. Jeffrey West writes about mechanistic learning, the best of two worlds based on a paper by John Metzcar, @mathcancer.bsky.social, @alvarokohn.bsky.social, Catherine Jutzeler and Sara Bruningk: mathematical-oncology.org/blog/mechani... #MachineLearning #MathOnco

We review in a new preprint the synergistic combination of knowledge-driven and data-driven modeling in #mathonco with @jmetzcar @mathcancer.bsky.social @Jutzeler_Cathy @SBruningk and thanks also to @HauptSaskia @_Alex_Zeilmann_ arxiv.org/abs/2312.07026
