Despite the huge amount of resources devoted to combating this terrible disease, progress has been slow. Most patients are still treated with painful blunt instruments like radiation and chemotherapy while new targeted treatments addressing specific genetic causes often only help a small portion of the population. Why haven't scientists and doctors been able to do more? Because each patient is different, each cancer is unique and we lack the framework for collecting, processing and understanding the mountain of information that we can generate on cancers, treatments and responses. 000007596 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000007596 650__ $$aComputational Biology$$031511 000007596 650__ $$aCell Line$$016284 000007596 650__ $$aMachine Learning$$011449 000007596 650__ $$aCellular Microenvironment$$039821 000007596 6531_ $$acancer 000007596 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000007596 7001_ $$aLazar, Nathan H. 000007596 8564_ $$950c945da-efca-469a-8779-50c2fb2b9a34$$s9966977$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/7596/files/Lazar.Nathan.2017.pdf 000007596 905__ $$a/rest/prod/jd/47/2x/01/jd472x01z 000007596 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:7596$$pstudent-work 000007596 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
