OncoMath at 60: Celebrating Mark Chaplain’s Milestone Birthday
28th-29th November 2024, University of St Andrews, UK
This workshop is uniquely research-focused, bringing together leading experts and researchers from a number of countries to delve into the latest advancements and challenges within the field of Mathematical Biology and Oncology. The workshop is particularly significant as it is held in honour of Professor Mark Chaplain’s 60th birthday, recognising his outstanding contributions to the field. Professor Chaplain’s work has been instrumental in advancing our understanding of Mathematical Oncology, and this workshop aims to both celebrate his achievements and push the boundaries of current research through collaborative discussions and innovative presentations.
