Publisher’s synopsis

Cancer is one of the most complex diseases known to science, and understanding it requires more than biology alone. This book introduces readers to the powerful role of computational techniques in cancer research. From modeling tumor growth and analyzing genomic data to applying machine learning for diagnosis and treatment prediction, this guide offers a comprehensive overview of the tools and technologies reshaping oncology. Designed for students, researchers, and clinicians, it bridges the gap between biological insight and computational power.
