In this paper, we analyzed Wodarz?s Model, a nonlinear mathematical model to the study the interaction between tumor cells and the oncolytic viruses. The equilibrium points of the system are investigated, and their stability analysis is carried out. Moreover, the numerical simulation of the analyzed model is also performed which supports the theoretical findings. CN - LG 993.5 2019 M38 P43 ER -
