Physical Sciences in Oncology Symposium--USC

I'm currently at the Physical Sciences in Oncology Symposium at USC. I'm going to try to blog on some of the talks here. We'll see what happens.

Overview: NCI has recently created 10 Physical Sciences in Oncology centers around the nation. The thought is to integrate the physical sciences into cancer research, to make it a more holistic discipline.

Most of the talks here are focused not on the biology of cancer, but on physical characterization and modeling of cancer cells, cancer cell signaling, cancer evolution, diagnostics, and therapeutic response.

There are at least some information on most of the talks.
