Using evolvable genetic cellular automata to model breast cancer
Cancer is an evolutionary process; mutated cells are selected for abnormal growth and survivability. Here, a computer simulation is used to model ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), ...

Integrating generative growth and evolutionary computation for form exploration
We present a novel means of algorithmically describing a growth process that is an extension of Lindenmayer’s Map L-systems. This growth process relies upon a set of rewrite rule...

Motility, mixing, and multicellularity
Abstract. A fundamental issue in evolutionary biology is the transition from unicellular to multicellular organisms, and the cellular differentiation that accompanies the increase...

An evolutionary approach to cancer chemotherapy scheduling
In this paper, we investigate the employment of evolutionary algorithms as a search mechanism in a decision support system for designing chemotherapy schedules. Chemotherapy invol...

Genomic mining for complex disease traits with "random chemistry"
Our rapidly growing knowledge regarding genetic variation in the human genome offers great potential for understanding the genetic etiology of disease. This, in turn, could revolut...
