Why the Biomedical Research Paradigm Must Change if we are to Win the “War on Cancer” |Biomedgrid

Bjectives: The purpose of this article is to begin a dialogue concerning the consequences for research design and data interpretation of outdated assumptions underpinning current biomedical research. Methods: Integrated analysis and review of the ways in which the exclusion of physics (quantum theory) and biophysics data (endogenous bioelectric signaling) in biomedicine have biased research design and data interpretation. Concrete consequences for clinical oncology research are used as illustrations.
