Computational Cancer Biology: An Expedition Towards Precision Oncology
Offered By: International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Embark on a comprehensive exploration of computational approaches in cancer biology through this illuminating lecture. Delve into the evolving landscape of cancer research, from ancient Egyptian papyri to cutting-edge clinical trials, as part of the "Theoretical Approaches in Cancer Progression and Treatment" program. Discover how mathematical and computational methods are revolutionizing our understanding of cancer, aiding in the design of novel clinical trials, and paving the way for precision oncology. Learn about state-of-the-art modeling techniques, including age-structured populations, systems biology of cancer networks, and dynamical modeling of heterogeneous populations. Gain insights into the application of machine learning and statistical inference in cancer research. This lecture, delivered by Nandini Verma at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, offers a unique perspective on the intersection of theoretical approaches and experimental data in the quest to understand and control cancer evolution.
