The symposium is designed for participants to explore systems biology approaches to understanding cancer progression and treatment response. Talks covering computational and imaging innovations will focus on decoding the tumor microenvironment, analyzing spatial dynamics in metastasis, mapping cell-cell interactions, and advancing therapeutic and diagnostic strategies.
Registration is now open and free to all. Please register using this link or scan QR code in the flyer.
More than three-quarters of the AI software cleared by the Food and Drug Administration for medical use is designed to support radiology practice, says Curtis Langlotz, a radiology professor at Stanford University and president of the Radiological Society of North America’s board of directors.
