Abstract
Over a 20 year period, the journal Cancer Informatics has played an important role defining and forging a bridge between bioinformations and translational cancer research. The main focus of the journal has been to advance the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. This involves the specialized intersection of genomics, molecular biology, data science, computer programing, statistics, communication theory, and the clinical sciences to answer important questions in the field of cancer research.
期刊介绍:
The field of cancer research relies on advances in many other disciplines, including omics technology, mass spectrometry, radio imaging, computer science, and biostatistics. Cancer Informatics provides open access to peer-reviewed high-quality manuscripts reporting bioinformatics analysis of molecular genetics and/or clinical data pertaining to cancer, emphasizing the use of machine learning, artificial intelligence, statistical algorithms, advanced imaging techniques, data visualization, and high-throughput technologies. As the leading journal dedicated exclusively to the report of the use of computational methods in cancer research and practice, Cancer Informatics leverages methodological improvements in systems biology, genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and molecular biochemistry into the fields of cancer detection, treatment, classification, risk-prediction, prevention, outcome, and modeling.
