The mathematical oncology has received a lot of interest in recent years since it helps illuminate pathways and provides valuable quantitative predictions, which will shape more effective and focused future therapies. We discuss a new fractal-fractional-order model of the interaction among tumor cells, healthy host cells and immune cells. The subject of this work appears to show the relevance and ramifications of the fractal-fractional order cancer mathematical model.

Introduction: Dengue and Malaria are the most important mosquito-borne viral diseases affecting humans. Fever is transmitted between human hosts by infected female aedes mosquitoes. The modeling study of viral infections is very useful to show how the virus replicates in an infected individual and how the human antibody response acts to control that replication, which antibody playing a key role in controlling infection.

In this paper, a new stochastic fractional Coronavirus (2019-nCov) model with modified parameters is presented. The proposed stochastic COVID-19 model describes well the real data of daily confirmed cases in Wuhan. Moreover, a novel fractional order operator is introduced, it is a linear combination of Caputo's fractional derivative and Riemann-Liouville integral.

The aim of this work is to present numerical treatments to a complex order fractional nonlinear one-dimensional problem of Burgers' equations. A new parameter is presented in order to be consistent with the physical model problem. This parameter characterizes the existence of fractional structures in the equations.

Introduction: Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic is the defining global health crisis of our time and the greatest challenge we have faced since world war two. To describe this disease mathematically, we noted that COVID-19, due to uncertainties associated to the pandemic, ordinal derivatives and their associated integral operators show deficient. The fractional order differential equations models seem more consistent with this disease than the integer order models.

The objective of this paper is to study the optimal control problem for the fractional tuberculosis (TB) infection model including the impact of diabetes and resistant strains. The governed model consists of 14 fractional-order (FO) equations. Four control variables are presented to minimize the cost of interventions.

In this paper, we presented a novel multi-strain TB model of variable-order fractional derivatives, which incorporates three strains: drug-sensitive, emerging multi-drug resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR), as an extension for multi-strain TB model of nonlinear ordinary differential equations which developed in 2014 by Arino and Soliman [1]. Numerical simulations for this variable-order fractional model are the main aim of this work, where the variable-order fractional derivative is defined in the sense of Grünwald-Letnikov definition. Two numerical methods are presented for this model, the standard finite difference method (SFDM) and nonstandard finite difference method (NSFDM).
