This session is dedicated to review recent advances in mathematical modelling in two related biological areas: developmental biology and tumour growth. Whereas developmental biology has a long history of relying on mathematical ideas going back to the seminal work of Turing on pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems, mathematical modelling of tumour growth is a relative newcomer. However, recent work claiming that application from ecology and evolutionary biology concepts should greatly improve our understanding of cancer has sparked renewed interest in mathematical modelling of cancer.
