From the editor
Hello!
Today's issue contains a bit of game theory, Darwinian evolution, subclonal reconstruction, an interesting model of glioblastoma's transient states, and radiosensitivity in lung cancer.
By the way, Nature Cancer launched its first issue this week. I've included a link to their "roadmap for the next decade in cancer research," below.
Please enjoy!

A roadmap for the next decade in cancer research
"Cancer research in recent years has been marked by significant developments in understanding disease biology and foundational discoveries that have changed clinical practice. Ten cancer researchers take stock of the field, the advances that excite them, key outstanding questions and breakthroughs they anticipate looking forward."
