FEATURED CANCER-PHYSICS TRILOGY

Dr. J. James Frost highlights the discussion of intelligence as applied to cancer; computation and its limits and develops a new approach to advanced personalized oncology where elucidation of the patient's intrinsic cancer computational machine and its gameplay strategies, coupled to recent developments in AI human gameplay, including bluffing and deception, can lead to vastly improved strategies for the oncologist to defeat the patient's cancer.

"Is there a parallel to be drawn between bluffing in poker and bluffing in cancer’s game with the oncologist?"

Symmetry and symmetry breaking principles are applied to cancer, categorizing them into combinatorial, geometric, and functional aspects, exploring their relevance to features like EMT, tumor heterogeneity, and functional interaction networks, offering a novel perspective that may contribute to understanding cancer's origin, spread, treatment, and resistance.

Cancer is viewed as an intelligent system with collaborative and computing cells, highlighting the limitations of current research and treatment, advocating for a new paradigm, and exploring the application of computational concepts to describe cancer's intelligent features, leading to implications for future research.

I wrote the lead chapter, "What Cancer Is" exploring novel therapeutic insights and a deeper understanding of cancer's fundamental nature for the book, Cancer, Complexity, Computation, which offers a diverse compendium of interdisciplinary perspectives on cancer from top experts in oncology, complexity theory, mathematics, and computer science.
