Countless medical researchers over the past century have been
occupied by the search for a cure of cancer. So far, they have
developed and implemented awide rangeof treatment techniques,
including surgery, chemo- and radiotherapy, antiangiogenic drugs,
small molecule inhibitors, and oncolytic viruses.However, patterns
of these treatments' effectiveness remain largely unclear, and a
better understanding of how cancer therapies work has become akey
research goal."Cancer Treatment in Silico"provides the first
in-depth study of approaching this understanding by modeling cancer
treatments, both mathematically and through computer
simulations.
The main goal of this book is to help expose students and
researchers to in silico methods ofstudying cancer.It isintended
forboth the applied mathematics and experimental oncology
communities, asmathematicalmodelsare playing an increasingly
important roleto supplement laboratory biology in the fight against
cancer. Written at a level that generally requires little technical
background, the workwill be a valuable resource for scientists and
students alike."
