ys on the move but nowhere has it been more in flux than at Harvard University. Indeed ten years ago, an Austrian biologist and mathematician called Martin Nowak, at the Advanced Institute for Studies at Princeton, met with an unknown New York financier called Jeffrey Epstein, to discuss the evolution of lan
what emerged was far more pragmatic than the first evolutionary theory of irregular verbs. What emerged was an entire department at Harvard, under Nowak's direction, to study the evolution of human diseases with the primary use of mathematics. The department, called the Program for Evolutionary Dynam
s math models soon led to key discoveries towards combatting diseases of all kinds. In 2012, Nowak and two postdoctoral students, Benjamin Allen and Ivana Bozic, developed the first EFTA_R1_00435627 EFTA01961024 mathematical model of how human colon-cancer cells evolve and how they become immune to inhib
