Mathematical Modeling of Pharmaceuticals:Predictive Design for Better Medicines-Ashlee Ford Versypt

Order: Reorder
Duration: 39:59
Updated: 21 Aug 2013

View more information on the DOE CSGF Program at http://www.krellinst.org/csgf Smart designs of drug molecules and pharmaceutical formulations can target treatments to specific tissues, reduce side effects, and improve patient quality of care. Computational models for evaluating pharmaceutical formulations can narrow the range of experiments needed to identify successful designs by predicting performance, thus reducing development time and driving down costs. Models coupled with sophisticated process control strategies allow for careful manufacturing monitoring to reduce materials and energy waste and adhere to quality standards. I will overview mathematical modeling efforts in several pharmaceutical domains and highlight work related to predicting drug release from controlled-release formulations that administer medicine over extended periods with a single dose. I will show how coupled, nonlinear partial differential equations can be used to capture the complex dynamic interactions between simultaneous chemical reactions and mass transfer. I will describe mathematical techniques that can reduce the system size from thousands of equations to just a few while still resolving biodegradation of the pharmaceutical formulation that strongly influences drug release dynamics. These techniques can help design improved controlled-release formulations.

Simon Singh: Trick or Treatment, Alternative Medicine on Trial

Order: Reorder

Updated: 12 Nov 2013

Simon Singh is an author and journalist specialising in science and mathematics. Rather amazingly, he is the author the first mathematical book to be a UK No.1 bestseller. In this provocative talk Simon describes how he went down the rabbit hole into the murky world of libel laws in the UK after writing an article on alternative medicine. The talk covers the dangers of overdosing on homeopathic sleeping pills (side effects may involve staying awake!) all the way to the importance of and dangers to free speech in journalism and science.

[VIASM] Machine Learning Approaches for Genomic Medicine - Prof. Mesirov P.1

Order: Reorder
Duration: 30:21
Updated: 29 Oct 2013

Public lecture at VIASM. Time: 16:00 -- 17:30. August 28, 2012. Venue: Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM) 7-th floor, Ta Quang Buu Library, Hanoi University of Science & Technology Speaker: Prof. Jill Mesirov -- Broad Institute (Harvard-MIT) Abstract: The sequencing of the human genome and the development of new methods for acquiring biological data have changed the face of biomedical research. The use of mathematical and computational approaches is taking advantage of the availability of these data to develop new methods with the promise of improved understanding and treatment of disease. I will describe some of these approaches as well as our recent work on a Bayesian method for integrating high-level clinical and genomic features to stratify pediatric brain tumor patients into groups with high and low risk of relapse after treatment. The approach provides a more comprehensive, accurate, and biologically interpretable model than the currently used clinical schema, and highlights possible future drug targets.
