Genomic introgression mapping of field-derived multiple-anthelmintic resistance in Teladorsagia circumcincta [PDF]
Preventive chemotherapy has long been practiced against nematode parasites of livestock, leading to widespread drug resistance, and is increasingly being adopted for eradication of human parasitic nematodes even though it is similarly likely to lead to ...

Optimized Treatment Schedules for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia [PDF]
Over the past decade, several targeted therapies (e.g. imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib) have been developed to treat Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML). Despite an initial response to therapy, drug resistance remains a problem for some CML patients.

Mutational pathway determines whether drug gradients accelerate evolution of drug-resistant cells [PDF]
Drug gradients are believed to play an important role in the evolution of bacteria resistant to antibiotics and tumors resistant to anti-cancer drugs. We use a statistical physics model to study the evolution of a population of malignant cells exposed to drug gradients, where drug resistance emerges via a mutational pathway involving multiple mutations.

Multiscale modelling of cancer progression and treatment control : the role of intracellular heterogeneities in chemotherapy treatment [PDF]
Cancer is a complex, multiscale process involving interactions at intracellular, intercellular and tissue scales that are in turn susceptible to microenvironmental changes.

Hsp90 governs dispersion and drug resistance of fungal biofilms [PDF]
Fungal biofilms are a major cause of human mortality and are recalcitrant to most treatments due to intrinsic drug resistance. These complex communities of multiple cell types form on indwelling medical devices and their eradication often requires ...
