Written and edited by experts in the field, this collection covers the progress that has been made in understanding the molecular pathogenesis of lung cancer and how this information is leading to improved detection and treatment strategies. The contributors review the genomic, transcriptomic, epigenomic, and proteomic changes associated with lung carcinogenesis, the histologic and metabolic features of different types of lung cancer, and the roles of the immune microenvironment and cancer stem cells in tumor maintenance and metastasis. The large databases of demographic and clinical information, high-throughput platforms that generate molecular data, advanced computational methods, and preclinical models that facilitate advances in basic and translational research are also covered.
