Calculating Better Tuberculosis Treatments
- Denise Kirschner developed an equation-based lung model of a fatal but forgotten infectious disease,
revealing an unexpected role for math in drug discovery. - March, 2023
Dr. Denise Kirschner on the first Whole Lung Simulator Helping to Predict New Treatments and Vaccines for TB
- Dr. Kirschner is a professor in the dept of Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Michigan. She is Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Theoretical Biology and the founding co-director of The Center for Systems Biology at the University of Michigan, an interdisciplinary center at the University of Michigan aimed to facilitate research and training between wet-lab and theoretical scientists. - December 5, 2022
How a virtual monkey lung could advance treatment for a centuries-old global threat - A team of researchers say they've made a breakthrough that could speed up the search for more effective treatments and vaccines for the world's No. 1 infectious killer. Using mathematics, the team of University of Michigan researchers and their partners around the globe have developed a whole lung simulation capable of reproducing activity in the lungs, lymph nodes, and blood vessels during a pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB) infection. - November 5, 2022
Multiscale Models Shed Light on Tuberculosis -
As demonstrated by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, a thorough understanding of infectious diseases requires data and models on multiple interconnected levels. Epidemiology addresses population-level issues, transmission models describe individuals within their environments, and a variety of biomedical approaches help researchers comprehend the way in which pathogens infiltrate the body - and the body's ability to fight back. - October 3, 2022
