- Culmination of 8 years of research on refining and validating computational models with in vivo experiments. Emergent oscillations observed in the agent-based models led to discovery of real oscillations in vivo, providing the first dynamics-based mechanism explaining expanded tumour/retinopathy vessels. This paper is the foundation of Bentley’s temporal basis theory (Bentley, Philosophical Trans 2017) identifying dynamics as a new therapeutic target. The theory, evidenced here, directly generated significant funding ($1.1M - BIDMC Harvard Medical School 2013, $250K NIH 2015, £2M Crick 2018). Keynotes, e.g. IEEE ALife 2013 and 2016, and invited talks, e.g. GRC Angiogenesis 2015; Cincinnatti Childrens Hospital 2020.
