Digital Twins for Oncology via Imaging-Based Mathematical Modeling

Join the February NCI Imaging and Informatics Community Webinar to learn how Dr. Thomas Yankeelov’s laboratory is using quantitative imaging data to develop digital twins, a virtual representation of a cancer patient from real-world data, to better predict risk and optimize therapy for cancer.

During the presentation, Dr. Yankeelov will cover:

• how digital twins can lead to the success of adaptive, individual-based clinical trials as demonstrated by the I-SPY trials for breast cancer.
• why physics and biology-based mathematical models are important for constructing digital twins.
• what ideas are beginning to play out in predicting and optimizing neoadjuvant therapy for breast cancer.

This event is free and open to the public.
