Computational Oncology

The genomes of both healthy and malignant cells have been the subject of an astounding amount of data collection thanks to next-generation sequencing. Our researchers are developing computational oncology tools to help them navigate and interpret this enormous amount of data and turn molecular discoveries into patient-beneficial treatments.

A relatively new term in medicine that is starting to acquire traction is computational oncology. Some people might be surprised to learn that huge medical institutions all over the world are creating complete departments labelled as such.
