OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Computational investigation of single-scale and multi-scale heterogeneous immune responses during cancer evolution
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
