Tyler Cassidy (He/his)

📢Open postdoc position in Bayesian inference for cell biology applications at Uppsala University, Sweden. 2 years’ salary. Apply before April 29th. The selected candidate will work with @hamiscalculated @MansMeg @Dagim26 (🧵1/6)

The details and results of the clinical trial are here nature.com/articles/s4159… --It has been an absolute treat using mathematics to (hopefully) increase our understanding of HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies

As a postdoc @LosAlamosNatLab, I had this fuzzy hope to use mathematical modelling in support of a clinical trial of HIV-1 treatments. I was very lucky to see that happen a few years ago; the mathematical details of that work are now out @PLOSCompBiol journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…

Even better, together with @a13xbrowning, @ChiaraVilla12, and @PhilipMaini, we spent the week thinking about the dynamics of phenotypic resistance to targeted anti-cancer therapies. It was an incredibly fun week thinking about hard problems with with great collaborators.

We were lucky to have an exceptional few days of mathematical biology last week @UniversityLeeds; two fantastic seminars from @hamiscalculated and @adrianne_jenner on computational approaches to understand spatial and intra-patient heterogeneity in cancer #MathOnco

All the code is available and waiting for criticism on my Github #Vulnerable

It's all tied together by numerical continuation and offers a perspective of how best-fit parameters evolve as a function of experimental data and using this point of view to inform experimental design.

In my everyday life, I'm often confused about the link between fit model parameters and experimental data. This recent paper in @SMB_MathBiology is my first step towards trying to puzzle my way through this relationship link.springer.com/article/10.100…

@anshrdas @rose_bohrer Ditto; I do mathematical biology and would be happy to help however possible.

@rose_bohrer Thank you so much!

That amazing feeling when your supervisor calls to tell you you are entirely on your own because she has decided she doesn't have any time to spend on mentoring you. Why yes, of course I can do my entire PhD by myself with no guidance, why wouldn't I?

Very excited to share the programme for our @LondMathSoc workshop on #Mathematics of delayed phenomena next week. Look forward to welcoming all participants @NorthumbriaUni in #newcastle. Anyone interested welcome. Talks will be streamed, please get in touch to attend remotely.

More @leedsucu runners for the second lap of the campus #ucuRISING #UCUstrike

Wonderful week surrounded by incredible people and so-so views. Grateful to @adrianne_jenner & @lab_craig for organizing and all the participants/new friends for the conversations, laughs, and new ideas

Accomplished XC skiing while at the BIRS workshop #BIRS23cancermodelling

@mathsleedsuni @beeshtylla @lab_craig More information on projects, ideas, opportunities as I learn how to not get run over when crossing the street and remember the S on the end of maths

The past 5 days have been a whirlwind, but I'm very excited start a lecturer (~assistant prof) position @mathsleedsuni. I wouldn't be here without all the wonderful mentorship and collaboration @beeshtylla @lab_craig (and many, many others) #AcademicTwitter #MathOnco

Saturday morning made infinitely better by the first letter from my @LettersPreSci pen-pal! She loves Nirvana, books, math, and the LA dodgers. I can’t wait to talk music, science careers, and if “science is ever boring” with her!

@TyrelStokes Congratulations Dr Stokes!

@RimmaH112514 1 undergrad, 3 PhD, and 4 papers submitted that were published during my postdoc. I work in math bio/dynamical systems.

@TyrelStokes I absolutely do not believe it. The door placed on top of two filling cabinets as a desk was a McGill institution

@TyrelStokes Congratulations! This is super exciting and I’m a phone call away for intramural hockey league games. Hopefully your office has cleaner windows than #Burnside
