  1. 1. Computational prediction of cell-cell interactions in the brain-tumour microenvironment

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Paula Camargo Romera; [2023]
    Keywords : Cancer; Glioblastoma; Computational Biology; Bioinformatics; Microenvironment; Brain tumour; Interactions; Systems Biology;

    Abstract : Glioblastoma is the fastest-growing, and the most common malignant brain tumour in adults. It is normally treated with surgery and radio- or chemotherapy, but the approximate life expectancy is of 15 months with a high probability of cancer recurring. Therefore, there is a need for decreasing its severity. READ MORE
