Heiko Enderling

Heiko Enderling is a German mathematical biologist and mathematical oncologist whose research topics include radiotherapy, tumor-immune interactions, cancer stem cells, and dynamic biomarkers. He is an Associate Member in the Department of Integrated Mathematical Oncology at Moffitt Cancer Center, editor of the Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, and president of the Society for Mathematical Biology (2021-2023).[1]

Education and career

Enderling graduated from Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg with a degree in Computervisualistik in 2003,[2] and completed his Ph.D. at the University of Dundee in 2006. His dissertation, Mathematical modelling of breast tumour development, treatment and recurrence, was jointly supervised by Mark Chaplain, Glenn Rowe, and Alexander Anderson.

After postdoctoral research at Tufts University, he was an assistant professor at Tufts University from 2010-2013 before moving to Moffitt Cancer Center. At Moffitt, he directs a research group on Quantitative Personalized Oncology,[3] with the goal to integrate quantitative modeling into oncology decision making.

He is president of the Society for Mathematical Biology from 2021-2023, the major academic society in the field.
