Funded Activity Summary
Application of novel exact combinatorial optimisation techniques and metaheuristic methods for problems in cancer research. Novel biotechnologies are offering an unprecedented opportunity to understand the genetic basis of cancer development and progression. However, they present us with a challenge; new computational methods and improved mathematical models and algorithms need to be introduced to complement these technologies in the determination of the function of our individual genetic makeup, especially in connection with disease states. The project will deal with research questions and datasets related to some of the highest incidence cancers in Australia. This project will contribute towards the development of new powerful algorithms for pattern recognition for future "personalized" molecular diagnostics methods.Funded Activity Details
