Welcome to the Macklin Math Cancer Lab!

Paul Macklin is Co-Director of the recently-established Consortium for Integrative Computational Oncology (CICO) at the University of Southern California. He is an assistant professor at the Center for Applied Molecular Medicine at the University of Southern California. Our lab works to develop and validate sophisticated models of cancer in individual patients. We work in tightly-integrated teams of clinicians, modelers, and biologists to develop computational tools that will one day help improve clinical planning.

Figure: An early test of our new 3-D agent-based cell model, growing from 10 to 80,000 agents in about 25 days (24-threaded simulation required about 5 hours). Rendered in 3D using POVRAY (with a cutaway view). [Read more ...]
