We live in a time when it is widely recognized that scientific collaborations across traditional disciplines can yield exponential gains through synergy. Cancer research is currently benefiting from advances in many fields, including biology (genomics and proteomics), physical chemistry (mass spectrometry and radio imaging), computer science and biostatistics (machine learning, artificial intelligence), and many others. There exists a bewildering diversity of scientific journals in which new applications of these advances toward discovery in cancer research is reported. Leveraging these advances into new medicines and medical practices for the early detection, prevention and treatment of cancer is made difficult by the broad diffusion this literature. Bioinformatics and computational biology appear to play a central role at each nexus, in part because novel technologies lead to immense leaps in the amount and granularity of data from patients and patient samples. A number of important journals exist that focus on a wide breadth of foci within bioinformatics. Medical informatics is a field nearly as wide that includes patient information systems and related critical components of information management in the information age. Cancer Informatics seeks submissions which significantly advance computational techniques or provide meaningful biological validation.
