Mean-field dynamics of tumor growth and control using low-impact chemoprevention [PDF]
Cancer poses danger because of its unregulated growth, development of resistant subclones, and metastatic spread to vital organs. Although the major transitions in cancer development are increasingly well understood, we lack quantitative theory for how chemoprevention is predicted to affect survival.

Forecasting Malaria in Indian States: A Time Series Approach with R Shiny Integration [PDF]
Malaria remains a significant public health challenge in many regions, necessitating robust predictive models to aid in its management and prevention. This study focuses on developing and evaluating time series models for forecasting malaria cases across eight Indian states: Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Odisha, Tripura, and
