Recent Conferences.This book presents an Assessment of Physical Sciences and Engineering Advances in Life Sciences and Oncology (APHELION) by a panel of experts. It covers the status and trends of applying physical sciences and engineering principles to oncology research in leading laboratories and organizations in Europe and Asia. The book elaborates on the six topics identified by the panel that have the greatest potential to advance understanding and treatment of cancer, each covered by a chapter in the book. The study was sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) at the National Institute of Health (NIH), the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering at the NIH in the US under a cooperative agreement with the World Technology Evaluation Center (WTEC).Science Policy Reports,2213-1965BiophysicsBiological physicsOncology  Biomedical engineeringMedical physicsRadiationBiochemistryStatistical physicsDynamical systemsBiological and Medical Physics, Biophysicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P27008Oncologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160Biomedical Engineering and Bioengineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700XMedical and Radiation Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P27060Biochemistry, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14005Complex Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000Biophysics.Biological physics.Oncology  .Biomedical engineering.Medical physics.Radiation.Biochemistry.Statistical physics.Dynamical systems.Biological and Medical Physics, Biophysics.Oncology.Biomedical Engineering and Bioengineering.Medical and Radiation Physics.Biochemistry, general.Complex Systems.530Janmey Pauledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtFletcher Danieledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGerecht Sharonedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtLevine Rossedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMallick Paragedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMcCarty Owenedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMunn Lanceedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtReinhart-King Cynthiaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254633203321Physical Sciences and Engineering Advances in Life Sciences and Oncology2513929UNINA
