1-150-S-CancerTherapy
03 Aug 2021 | | Contributor(s):: Maila Hallare, Iordanka Panayotova
This activity builds upon elementary models on population growth. In particular, we compare two different treatment models of cancer therapy where in one, surgery happens before therapy and in the other, surgery happens after therapy.Activities will help students appreciate the importance of...
