IMO WORKSHOP

With the focus of this workshop on evolution, we created this piece to highlight our perspective of cancer through a Darwinian evolutionary lens. In this, we depict Charles Darwin manipulating phylogenetic trees as if they were marionettes, whilst the trees spell out "IMO WORKSHOP". Because this was the 8th annual workshop, we have hanging in the middle an "8", which is also a rotated infinity symbol, and which is also part of the logo created for our Center of Excellence in Evolutionary Therapy... For the 3rd annual workshop, we created a representation of how a patient's data can be integrated into mathematical models to inform personalized treatments, which is also in the shape of a "3". The top portion shows a person's head made of colored puzzle pieces to represent a patient's unique features, which are mapped above in circles. This includes from the left to the right: imaging, histology, an angiogram, Western blot, chromosomes, and DNA. These feed into the integrated circuit..
