Applied Math Research Points to New Cancer Treatments

Researchers from Applied Math, along with colleagues at the Harvard Medical School, have found a new approach for attacking drug resistant cancer cells. 

This study uses a mathematical model developed by Applied Math Professor Mohammad Kohandel, and Andrew Dhawan, a former Applied Math undergraduate student who is now attending medical school. The paper was published last week in Nature Communications. More information on this study can be found at this UWaterloo news article.
