Research summary
AI-generated

Paul Macklin works in mathematical biology, building computer simulations that model how cancer and other cells behave and interact over time. His research combines agent-based modeling (where each cell is simulated as an individual actor), metabolic modeling, and imaging data to study tumor growth, the tumor microenvironment, and potential therapies. Much of this work aims toward 'digital twins' and predictive tools for personalized cancer care.
