OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Tumour microenvironment is characterised by heterogeneity at various scales: from various cell populations (immune cells, cancerous cells, …) and various molecules that populate the microenvironment (cytokines, chemokines, extracellular vesicles, …); to phenotype heterogeneity inside the same cell population (e.g., immune cells with different phenotypes and different functions); as well as temporal heterogeneity in cells’ phenotypes (as cancer evolves through time) and spatial heterogeneity.
In this talk we overview some mathematical models and computational approaches developed to investigate different single-scale and multi-scale aspects related to heterogeneous immune responses during cancer evolution. Throughout the talk we emphasise the qualitative vs. quantitative results, and data availability across different scales
