Although there are various types of cancer treatments, none of these currently take into account the e®ect of ageing of the immune system and hence altered responses to cancer. Recent studies have shown that in vitro stimulation of T cells can help i... Read More about Defining a simulation strategy for cancer immunocompetence.

Investigating immune system aging: system dynamics and agent-based modeling (2010)
Book Chapter
Figueredo, G. P., & Aickelin, U. (2010). Investigating immune system aging: system dynamics and agent-based modeling. In G. Wainer (Ed.), Summer Computer Simulation Conference (SCSC): 12-14 July, Ottawa, ON, Canada. Society for Modeling and Simulation International

System dynamics and agent based simulation models can
both be used to model and understand interactions of entities within a population. Our modeling work presented here is concerned with understanding the suitability of the different types of simul... Read More about Investigating immune system aging: system dynamics and agent-based modeling.
