Summer school on the mathematical modeling of cancer

The Hungarian Centre of Excellence in Molecular Medicine (HCEMM) and the National Laboratory for Health Security at the University of Szeged organised an international summer school on mathematical modelling of cancer. According to Gergely Röst, mathematician at the University of Szeged and scientific director of the national laboratory, the aim of the event, which was designed to train young doctors and mathematicians, was to acquire up-to-date knowledge in a new interdisciplinary field of cancer research. We asked Professors Joel Brown and Jeffrey West, researchers at the Moffitt Cancer Center in the US, about mathematical modelling of cancer, and they said that the mathematical algorithm that processes the data could be medicine itself.
