I am pleased to share that I will be chairing the track "In Silico Oncology" at the conference VPH 2026 (Virtual Physiological Human 2026). The conference will be held in Milan, Italy from 1 to 4 September 2026. I am looking forward to engaging discussions and high-quality contributions! Abstract submissions are now open until March 2. 🔗 https://vph-conference.org/abstract-submission/ 📌 SAVE THE DATE 9th International Conference on the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH) 📍 September 1–4, Politecnico di Milano 🔗 https://vph-conference.org/ It is worth noting that in silico oncology in its form of in silico radiation oncology served as the concrete paradigm for the formal foundation of in silico medicine as a distinct discipline in 2002 through the publication Stamatakos et al., "In silico radiation oncology: combining novel simulation algorithms with current visualization techniques," in Proceedings of the IEEE, vol. 90, no. 11, pp. 1764-1777, Nov. 2002, doi: 10.1109/JPROC.2002.804685, https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/1046955). The open access accepted manuscript of the paper is available at https://zenodo.org/records/18317236 . Proceedings of the IEEE is a top-tier, peer-reviewed technology journal.
