چکیده
A new paradigm in the way we look at cancer with important implications on how we treat it is about to be published in the British Journal of Cancer 1 by Portuguese, Belgian and American researchers. The group use a mathematical approach to reveal how by changing the dynamics of interaction between the cancer cells and those of the affected tissue it is possible to control and even potentially cure the disease. Even more interesting is the fact that this new approach can be used in any number of pathologies where different cells interact. The work has the potential to revolutionise the way we look into the treatment of disease and demonstrates the relevance of mathematical models, not only to improve our understanding of biological systems, but also to find more effective ways for dealing with problems in them.
