Recently, the complex processes of tumour initiation, progression and treatment have drawn the attention of many scientists across multiple disciplines and in silico models are emerging as equally important as in vitro and in vivo models in driving our understanding of cancer. The main goal of this 3-part minisymposium is to report on the state of the art of individual-based or continuous, multiscale and hybrid mathematical and computational models that are capable of capturing the complexity, heterogeneity and multiscale nature of cancer. We want to identify both the challenges and successes of this interdisciplinary enterprise.
