However, physician sometimes ignores or dismisses the opinion of biochemist (please see files; Rat DEN Np-Fuco and Feed by Measure).
By the way, I have previously collaborated with a physician, who takes immunological method (ELISA method) for granted. But, he has finally agreed that the HPLC-photometric method uniquely gives the true result (please see file; JCB Fucoidan transport).
Yes, sharing new knowledge / findings / treatment is important key for better care for patients. The cancer related issues are discussing in "Cancer board " for each week among Oncologists to discuss about their patients issues - the plan for treatment, cause for co morbidity or metastasis or unknown mortality ! Definetly collaborative research will give better results!
Just as cancer diagnosis and management require multidisciplinary approach, research into aetiology, pathogens is, complications, appropriate management and prevention require multidisciplinary approach and collaboration.
Cancer is a very complicated pathology! is manifesting very differently through patients disorders, the causes are various:
To fight cancer first it is necessary to understand this obscure world, and therefore it is necessary to develop divers specialities such as: medicine; biophysique; biochemistry; biotechnology; nutrition; environnemental-chemistry; which try to work in collaboration in order to advance in the field of cancerology!!!!
I agree with Dr. Salwa Bouabdallah (University of Carthage, Carthage, Tunisia) that Nutrition is an important issue (please see file; Anticancer Res). Excess of nutrition unexpectedly causes many infections by virus, bacteria and fungi.
Liver cancer is simply caused by the co-infection of HCV and HIV-1 (please see file; The Fascio effect).
Therefore, virology and research in the infectious disease are also important in cancer research.
I agree with you. Researchers from all academic discipline, be it in Life and Physical Science, Engineering, Social Science and Art must bring their expertise on board.
Progress isn't merely from standing on the shoulders of giants. It's standing shoulder to shoulder with giants. In my experience young investigators with good funding are the most exciting collaborators.

Cancer research is an interdisciplinary enterprise. This need a narrow collaboration between different laboratories- Moreover translational research in this field is of paramount importance and is one of the key of success for therapy (cell therapy , immunotherapy and other)-
