Neuroscience

Definition of Neuroscience as it relates to Science, Medicine, Oncology

Neuroscience in Oncology involves the study of nervous system structures and function in cancer, encompassing molecular mechanisms of neuron-cancer cell interactions and neurological complications arising from oncological treatments. It delves into understanding neural adaptations during tumor growth, chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity, and brain metastases to develop targeted neuroprotective strategies in cancer care. This specialty combines the multidisciplinary aspects of neuroscience research with clinical oncology practice.
