Modeling the evolutionary dynamics of clonal hematopoiesis -- @S_Marzban et al, Nature Genetics rdcu.be/e4cP1

Happy to see our CRC work featured in this week’s #MathOncology cover art 🎨 Using flow cytometry data, we show that dynamic transitions between CD34/CD38 cell states, rather than static composition alone, reflect BCR::ABL1 status. More coming soon 👀 aacrjournals.org/cancerrescommu…

@arjunrajlab Return to whimsy! 💯

The 20th century saw the style of scientific figures and writing go from whimsical to minimalist, the 21st century from minimalist to quasi-brutalist. Given that AI can mimic this new affect ~perfectly, perhaps we will see a return to whimsy to signify our humanity?

Winning a hockey game = 2 points. Losing in overtime = 1 point. As a game theorist, this suggests a cooperative solution (always agree to an overtime game) is global optimal but susceptible to defection… is hockey a prisoner’s dilemma lol

George Box on the notion of parsimony (1976)

Check out our paper in @ISEMPH that integrates multiplex immunofluorescence imaging with manifold learning to develop life history enlightened therapies to prevent hepatocellular carcinoma! 🎉 academic.oup.com/emph/advance-a… Had a blast working on this with @stallaertlab & Andy Duncan!

Chemotherapy and ionizing radiation are known to promote clonal hematopoiesis and its progression to leukemia. By inducing temporary quiescence of hematopoietic stem cells during external stress might we mitigate CH expansion? We address this through a collaboration with @AbdelWahablab @PuZhang09980432: nature.com/articles/s4158…. Excited to share this and some thoughts from a recent meeting in Hiroshima which puts this work in a broader perspective.

Convexity and concavity in the cafeteria @mathoncbro

@cellcycole This is great… I’ve never seen convex pricing in a cafeteria 🤔 🤣

@grok rewrite this tweet using academic jargon

Re: use of LLMs for scientific writing Science is still partially reputation-driven, and anything with your name on it will be tied to you for the remainder of your career. Discernment and responsible use are required!

Re: usage of LLMs in scientific writing LLMs to refine 1 great paper is much, much better than: LLMs to write N average papers* *for any integer value of N>0

@ZhuoerXie @MoffittNews Totally awesome! Congrats Zoey! 😎😎😎

So grateful for the Junior Faculty🏆in Clinical Science 🌱 first yrs of faculty is a fellowship in 'Investigator 101' 🙏 Grateful for the time to mature in this role 👉my fellow juniors: stay patient w/yourself ❤️Privilege to do this @MoffittNews w/amazing colleagues& mentors❤️

@ninja_maths This is great

We’re constantly refining our content to improve conceptual understanding. Here's a recent update to our Green's Theorem topic. Considering the local circulation around small squares (rather than circles) makes it much easier to see why everything in the interior cancels out.

We have a new Math Oncology special issue in npj Systems Bio Apps. Looking forward to receiving your submissions! Jointly edited by Sara Hamis, Guillermo Lorenzo, Robert Noble, & myself nature.com/collections/gf…
