Turning ecology and evolution against cancer.

Nature reviews. Cancer - 1 May 2014

Korolev Kirill S, Xavier Joao B, Gore Jeff

Abstract excerpt

The fight against cancer has drawn researchers from a wide variety of disciplines, ranging from molecular biology to physics, but the perspective of an ecological theorist has been mostly overlooked. By thinking about the cells that make up a tumour as an endangered species, cancer vulnerabilities become more apparent. Studies in conservation biology and microbial experiments indicate that extinction is a complex...
