Abstract
Glioblastoma Multiforme(GBM) is the most aggressive and common type of brain cancer in adults. In this study I used a mathematical model to demonstrate the cell proliferation of GBM. The model was found by compiling data from several studies which look at the proliferative index, mitotic Index and percent of cell migration. I ran correlation analysis on the mitotic index and proliferative index. This model can help scientists understand the process of cell proliferation in GBM.
