Multiscale computational modeling aims to connect the complex networks of effects at different length and/or time scales. For example, these networks often include intracellular …
To examine the hemostatic behaviors of neural activity and extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules, this paper provides a mathematical model for ECM combined with a FitzHugh …
A major cause of cancer mortality is metastasis of cancer cells from a localized tumor to other parts of the body. The interactions between cancer cells and the surrounding tumor …
Cancer attracts significant attention nowadays due to its rising global incidence, the complexity of its biological mechanisms, and the challenges it presents in treatment and …

Metastasis is the pathogenic spread of cancer cells from a primary tumor to a secondary site which happens at the late stages of cancer. It is caused by a variety of biological, chemical …
Metastasis, the leading cause of death in cancer patients, arises when cancer cells disseminate from a primary solid tumour to distant organs. Growth and invasion of the solid …
Cells can sense mechanical properties of surrounding environments and also structurally remodel the environments. Interactions between cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) play a …
We formulate haptotaxis models of cancer invasion wherein the infiltrating cancer cells can occupy a spectrum of states in phenotype space, ranging from 'fully mesenchymal'to 'fully …
