Watch a 23-minute Fields Institute lecture exploring the critical intersection of mathematical modeling and cancer treatment, specifically focusing on chemotherapy-induced cachexia and strategies for preserving lean mass. Presented by Suzan Farhang-Sardroodi from the University of Toronto as part of the Mathematical Oncology program, learn about innovative approaches to dosing optimization that consider the complex relationship between chemotherapy and muscle loss in cancer patients. Delve into computational methods that combine fluid dynamics, mechanics, and biology to develop more effective treatment protocols that maintain patient muscle mass while fighting cancer. The presentation is part of a broader thematic program examining how mathematical approaches can improve oncological outcomes.
