The Center for Modeling Cancer Development (CMCD) focuses on the analysis
of cancer as a complex biological system. This center is part of the National Cancer
Institute’s (NCI) Integrative Cancer Biology Program (ICBP), which is a cornerstone in
the development and implementation of computational models of processes relevant
to cancer prevention, diagnostics, and therapeutics. The integration of experimental
biology with mathematical modeling will result in new insights in the biology of
and new approaches to the management of cancer. This center will bring clinical
and basic cancer researchers together with researchers from mathematics, physics,
information technology, imaging sciences, and computer science to work on key
questions in cancer biology. For more information, visit methodisthealth.com/icbp.
