An excellent article on mathematical (mechanistic) modelling by @mathematista. "Transforming immunology into a simulation requires merging our creativity, intuition and immunological knowledge to create a suite of potential models that test different hypotheses."
Read my latest article on making immunology more predictable using custom-built mathematical models, published with @SpringerNature in @naturemethods doi.org/10.1038/s41592-024-0…

Could how you wash be affecting your eczema? We're excited to see the launch of our very first Rapid Eczema Trials study which is looking to answer: "Is it better to bathe daily or weekly when you have eczema?" Check out the latest @eczemasupport blog: blogs.nottingham.ac.uk/medsc…
