| Summary: | The future of cancer research and the development of new therapeutic strategies rely on our ability to convert biological and clinical questions into mathematical models-integrating our knowledge of tumour progression mechanisms with the tsunami of information brought by high-throughput technologies such as microarrays and next-generation sequencing. Offering promising insights on how to defeat cancer, the emerging field of systems biology captures the complexity of biological phenomena using mathematical and computational tools. |
