    1-150-CancerTherapy-ModelingScenario
    This activity builds upon elementary models on population growth. In particular, we compare two different treatment models of cancer therapy where in one, surgery happens before therapy and in the other, surgery happens after therapy.

    1-131-CaffeineElimination-ModelingScenario
    We model the concentration of caffeine eliminated from the human body at a rate proportional to the concentration. This is a ``first-order reaction'' in the language of pharmacokinetics -- the study of how drugs move in the body.
