Then we will analyze the equilibrium points and stability of that system. Finally will apply what we have learned about chaotic dynamics to oncology, and more specifically the chaotic behaviors of chemotherapy. 1:30pm Jacob Espinosa We explore Raabe’s test and it’s usefulness when other convergence test fails as well as some of
