The people who are in favour of AI, are you really okay with the bit where they make an AI 'actress' who basically fulfills their misogynistic fantasies of how women should look and behave? I don't think we get to pick and choose if we support this stuff do we?

Super. Please update us at the end. I'd be interested in hearing how the scientists and their work are portrayed in the novels. The Jurassic Park books do a good job at describing maths and how it's more enticing to visit a dangerous island to certain death than it is to keep applying for grants :P

Great question! I read some of them. Sometimes they bring clarity to some character actions, but that points more towards weak filmmaking IMO. How’s the Godzilla faring?

Good morning folks! I used to liveTweet SMB meetings - let's see if I can BlueSky as efficiently :)
#SMB2025 is about to start!
A picture of me with Daniel, making me look shorter than I already am.
At lunch I found @danielcooney1.bsky.social, who's been diligently sharing all @smbmathbiology.bsky.social related posts. Unsurprisingly, during his episode, we discussed using social media to talk science, and his use of game theory in his work:

Former HAL developer and @mathonco.bsky.social student, Rafael Bravo now with @utaustin.bsky.social presents new work on: "Testing the feasibility of estimating the migration to proliferation rate ratio in glioblastoma from single time-point MRI data" #SMB2025
Now attending a minisymposium on parameterising agent based models organized @dwodarz.bsky.social lab, 1st up is @utaustin.bsky.social member David Hormuth on "Leveraging longitudinal experimental data to parameterize mathematical models of tumor growth and response” #SMB2025
Next up is our very own @mathonco.bsky.social faculty @rejniaklab.bsky.social presenting, "Using tumor histology to analyze cancer immunotherapies with the agent-based micropharamacology model" #SMB2025 @moffittnews.bsky.social
Closing this session is another one of our @mathonco.bsky.social faculty, @cancerevo.org David Basanta: "Calibrating a Spatial Agent-Based Model of Multiple Myeloma Using In Vivo Data to Predict Immunotherapy Response" #SMB2025 @moffittnews.bsky.social

Starting off the final afternoon of #SMB2025, Susanna Manrubia from Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (CSIC) is giving a plenary talk on "The challenge of scale in molecular adaptation: Myopic searches in hyperastronomical genotype networks".
"Patients should be their own control"
- great & pithy takeaway from @sandyanderson.bsky.social in his talk on the adoption of adaptive therapies in the clinic #SMB2025 #MathOnco
Good morning from Australia.
