Mathematical modeling of the implication of tumor axonogenesis in pancreatic cancers (H/F)

Research, publications in international journals and participation to the events related to the PAIR PANCREAS project.

The candidate will develop research activities under the supervision of Florence HUBERT, professor at I2M, on the topics: mathematical modeling in oncology, differential equations, partial differential equations and their discretization, statistical interpretation of biological data.
This work is part of a large-scale project, led by Fanny Mann, DR CNRS at IBDM Marseille, which also brings together two other biology teams and a medical team. The project has received support from the National Cancer Institute, the ARC Foundation and the League against Cancer (PAIR Pancréas). This collaboration is also an opportunity within I2M to create bridges between the applied analysis team and the statistics team. More precisely, the work will consist of integrating all the biological data obtained by Fanny Mann's group into mathematical models describing the effect of the peripheral nervous system on the growth and progression of pancreatic tumors.
