Cancer is not a single disease, it is a complex and heterogeneous disease which leads to the second cause of death worldwide. Although all cancers manifest themselves as an uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells, they are actually distinct neoplastic diseases that possess different genetic and epigenetic alterations, underlying molecular mechanisms, histopathologies and clinical outcomes. Understanding the origins and growth of cancer requires understanding the role of genetics in encoding proteins that form phenotypes and molecular alterations at multiple levels (e.g., gene, cell, and tissue).
Despite significant advances in the understanding of the principal mechanisms leading to various cancer types, less progress has been made toward developing patient-specific treatments. Advanced mathematical and computational models could play a significant role in examining the most effective patient-specific therapies. This research topic solicits papers dealing with all aspects of mathematical and computational oncology including but not limited to: multiscale advanced mathematical and computational models, precision medicine, immuno-oncology, spatio-temporal tumor modeling and simulation, tumor forecasting, cancer genomics and proteomics, next-generation sequencing and single-cell analysis, anticancer drug development, systems biology and networks, general cancer computational biology, statistical methods, big data, deep learning, high performance computing, cloud computing, scientific visualization, image processing, computer vision, robotics, and natural language processing.
This Research Topic solicits papers describing contributions to the state of the art and practice in mathematical and computational oncology. Authors are also encouraged to present their work at the ISMCO, International Symposium on Mathematical and Computational Oncology, Virtually.
