Tumor evolution drives tumor progression, therapeutic resistance, and metastasis. Therefore, new predictive medicine strategies that adapt with a tumor are needed to improve patient outcomes. The techniques used in weather prediction are mathematically proven to enable prediction of evolving systems, and thus provide a framework for a new predictive medicine paradigm for cancer.
肿瘤进化导致肿瘤进展、治疗抵抗和转移。因此,需要新的预测医学策略来适应肿瘤,以改善患者的预后。天气预报中使用的技术在数学上已被证明可以预测不断演变的系统,从而为癌症的新预测医学范式提供了框架。
