Kayode Olumoyin

I am an applied postdoctoral fellow at the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute in Tampa, Florida, and a researcher in Dr. Kasia Rejniak's computational laboratory in the Department of Integrated Mathematical Oncology (IMO). My research involves modeling immune-based therapies in patients with bladder cancer. In recent years, data-driven mathematical modeling approaches in conjunction with dynamical systems have found applications to problems in the life sciences. In my Ph.D. studies, in Computational Science from Middle Tennessee State University under Prof Abdul Khaliq, I applied some of these approaches to study disease patterns in epidemiology and infectious disease models. In my postdoctoral studies, I am trying to determine the optimal treatment regimen for treating bladder cancer patients with adoptive cell therapy. There are numerous challenges, such as insufficient data and gaps in the underlying biology. This has informed the data-driven approaches that I developed to tackle these issues.
