Humans and animals detect different stimuli such as light, sound, and odor through nerve cells, which then transmit the information to the brain. Nerve cells must be able to adjust to the wide range ...

Mathematical modelling provides a rigorous framework for deciphering the complex dynamics of biological systems. By formulating systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and other mathematical ...

Ever better experimental techniques allow us to perform experiments under tightly controlled conditions and can deliver gigantic amounts of data reflecting the complexity of biology. This has vastly ...

Researchers have developed a three-dimensional mathematical model of prostate cancer. The model depicts various processes, including tumour growth, genetic evolution and tumour cell competition.

Geoscientist Sinikka Lennartz is modelling the decomposition of organic carbon in the ocean – a much-overlooked factor in the global carbon balance. Her earth system models run on the University of ...

Software engineer Sai Bhargav Yalamanchi notes that mathematical tools helping practitioners interpret uncertainty have become increasingly relevant.
