Inverse Modelling of the Cellular Immune Response to SARS-CoV-2
The ongoing struggle with COVID-19 persists as most researchers endeavour to find a successful method to curb global pandemics. Consequently, there... -
The Influence of Immune Response on Spreading of Viral Infection
AbstractIn this work we develop a model of viral infection in host tissues in order to study the influence of the immune response on the infection...

The Interferon Influence on the Infection Wave Propagation
Viral infection spreads in the infected tissue or in cell culture as a reaction-diffusion wave due to virus replication in the infected cells and its... -
Mathematical Model of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer in Response to Combination Chemotherapies
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogenous disease that is defined by its lack of targetable receptors, thus limiting treatment options...
