John and I decided to delay my dissertation defense until next quarter. This will allow me to finish up a couple of papers and remain in graduate student housing a little longer. More details to come on the two papers. Essentially, John and I decided that chapter 5 of my dissertation could be separated into two publications: a ghost fluid/level set method paper, and a modeling paper on our latest tumor growth/tissue model. Publishing these results as separate modeling and method papers will greatly assist as we start publishing results with our collaboration with Mark Chaplain, Steven McDougall, and Sandy Anderson.

In an unrelated vein, I'm going to try to keep this website better updated. I may roll out some home-grown XML/PHP software I wrote to make it a bit more "blog" like. :-)
