Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With increasing life expectancy and aging, cancer control becomes urgent for equitable and optimal health outcomes. To allow all populations to benefit from cancer research, we need to expand cancer surveillance and timely reporting. Thus, artificial intelligence and machine learning can help advance the identification of avoidable and modifiable risk factors and improve tailored cancer therapy. In this Special Issue, we bring bright minds from across various disciplines together to overcome the barriers of cancer. We include health equity, minorities, community partners, and daily practitioners to engage with the integral cancer-health equity in an aging population.
