Can AI predict cancer? New model uses genomics to simulate tumors


A team of scientists has developed a remarkable new approach to modeling how cells behave over time—using a digital "forecast" much like predicting the weather. By combining patient genomics with a groundbreaking plain-language “hypothesis grammar,” the researchers can simulate how cells communicate and evolve within tissues. These simulations allow scientists to digitally test how cancers grow, how immune systems respond, and even how treatments might work in individual patients.
