Abstract

While cancer research and care have benefited from revolutionary advances in the ability to manipulate and study living systems, the field is limited by a lack of synergy to leverage the power of engineering approaches. Cancer engineering is an emerging subfield of biomedical engineering that unifies engineering and cancer biology to better understand, diagnose, and treat cancer. We highlight cancer engineering's unique challenges, the importance of creating dedicated centers and departments that enable translational collaboration, and educational approaches to arm a new generation of scientists with engineering expertise and a fundamental understanding of cancer biology to transform clinical cancer care.
