Clone Wars: how are stockbrokers like colorectal cancer cells?
The Kavli Institute has a very interesting biophysics program series...
This weeks colloquium:
excellent colloquium on "cancer for theorists"
including discussion of the basics of cancer and metastasis,
mathematics of cancer epidemiology,
including the Master Equation for microevolution of cancer cells,
and open questions
soon likely to be a KITP program...
bottom line: everyone will get cancer, eventually, just from the Law of Large Numbers,
unless something else kills you first
we should do something about that...
