The Eleventh Computational Approaches for Cancer Workshop (CAFCW25)
DescriptionThe importance of high performance computing is ever increasing as a critical component of cancer research and clinical applications. The current global cancer ecosystem includes new scientific methods, AI, ever expanding sources of data, and use of simulations. These dynamic changes have set the stage for tremendous growth in HPC for cancer research and clinical application, particularly with the U.S. Cancer Moonshot 2.0 initiative, which aims to reduce mortality of cancer by 50% in 25 years. Originally established as part of SC15 during the advent of the Precision Medicine Initiative and the U.S. National Strategic Computing Initiative, this workshop provides a key venue for multiple disciplines and interests to converge, share insights, and develop collaborations in which HPC and computational approaches will advance the frontiers of cancer research and cancer care.
