Within the scope of the 2nd Summer School in Computational Oncology, which took place from June 24-28, 2013 at Schloss Dagstuhl, Wadern Germany, p-medicine partner ecancer took the opportunity to interview several experts in their field on their work within p-medicine or their relation to the project.
The interviews feature:
