Analyzing the dynamics of tumor-immune systems can play an important role in the fight against cancer, since it can foster the development of more effective medical treatments. This paper was aimed at making a contribution to the study of tumor-immune dynamics by presenting a new model of cancer growth based on fractional-order differential equations. By investigating the system dynamics, the manuscript highlights the chaotic behaviors of the proposed cancer model for both the commensurate and the incommensurate cases. Bifurcation diagrams, the Lyapunov exponents, and phase plots confirm the effectiveness of the conceived approach. Finally, some considerations regarding the biological meaning of the obtained results are reported through the manuscript.

There are thousands of Mendelian diseases with more being discovered weekly and the majority have no approved treatments. To address this need, we require scalable approaches that are relatively inexpensive compared to traditional drug development. In the absence of a validated drug target, phenotypic screening in model organisms provides a route for identifying candidate treatments.

Article Synopsis
- The review highlights the complexity of stroke, driven by disruptions in blood supply and complicated by the neural and vascular systems' interactions.
- Advances in machine vision and deep learning are improving predictive tools for stroke, but their clinical impact is limited by real-world data challenges.
- Although AI's potential benefits for stroke care are clear, the best approaches for practical application are still being explored, with deep generative models seen as a promising avenue for innovation.
An Estimate of Wolverine Density for the Canadian Province of Alberta.

Article Synopsis
- Wolverines have faced significant range reduction globally, with complete extirpation from eastern Canada and some western prairie regions.
- In Alberta, where they are designated for conservation, researchers aimed to estimate wolverine abundance using existing density data and habitat relationships.
- Results indicated approximately 955 wolverines in the province, with only 544 classified as adults, suggesting a need for a reassessment of their conservation status and related protective measures.

Because of the lack of translational symmetry, calculating the energy spectrum of an incommensurate system has always been a theoretical challenge. Here, we propose a natural approach to generalize energy band theory to incommensurate systems without reliance on the commensurate approximation, thus providing a comprehensive energy spectrum theory of incommensurate systems. Except for a truncation-dependent weighting factor, the formulae of this theory are formally almost identical to that of Bloch electrons, making it particularly suitable for complex incommensurate structures.
