Influence of diffusion on interactions between malignant gliomas and immune system

Urszula Foryś (2010)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We analyse the influence of diffusion and space distribution of cells in a simple model of interactions between an activated immune system and malignant gliomas, among which the most aggressive one is GBM Glioblastoma Multiforme. It turns out that diffusion cannot affect stability of spatially homogeneous steady states. This suggests that there are two possible outcomes-the solution is either attracted by the positive steady state or by the semitrivial one. The semitrivial steady state describes...

Influenza Transmission in Preschools: Modulation by contact landscapes and interventions

A.A. Adalja, P.S. Crooke, J.R. Hotchkiss (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Epidemiologic data suggest that schools and daycare facilities likely play a major role in the dissemination of influenza. Pathogen transmission within such small, inhomogenously mixed populations is difficult to model using traditional approaches. We developed simulation based mathematical tool to investigate the effects of social contact networks on pathogen dissemination in a setting analogous to a daycare center or grade school. Here we show...
