Kinetic theory and mathematical modelling have emerged as pivotal tools in analysing complex systems – ranging from biological entities and social interactions to financial markets. These methods ...

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 ...

A mathematical model is an abstract model that uses mathematical language to describe the behaviour of a system. Mathematical models are used particularly in the natural sciences and engineering ...

It is now practical to write software for real-time systems long before the actual computer hardware is sitting in a physical prototype. In today’s world it is rare to find electromechanical devices ...

This summer, Rosa Rossi-Goldthorpe ’19 is applying mathematical and computational methods to the study of psychiatric disorders, a continuation of her senior-year honors project. In the fall, she will ...

Why does cancer sometimes recur after chemotherapy? Why do some bacteria survive antibiotic treatment? In many cases, the answer appears to lie not in genetic differences, but in biological noise - ...

The single most famous weather forecast in British history is also one of the worst. In October 1987, a meteorologist working for the British Broadcasting Corporation reassured a concerned viewer that ...

A new study explains why certain patients develop severe infections after chemotherapy and points to ways of averting this side-effect. Cancer chemotherapy can be a life-saver, but it is fraught with ...

Machine learning is revolutionizing fundamental science by tackling long-standing mathematical challenges. A key example is ...

Brian P. Lazzaro from Cornell University discusses the role of dynamic feedbacks in determining infection outcomes ...

All hurricane forecasting models aren't created equal, even when it comes to those used to model the same storm. The storm surge models used by the U.S. national government "tend to over-predict so ...
