Abstract
This editorial mainly states the meaning of creating the Oncology Communications and highlights the importance and outlook of integrative medicine. We stress the importance of multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and cross-disciplinary collaboration, encouraging oncologists to work closely with experts from various fields, including basic medicine, mathematics, physics, sociology, artificial intelligence, and materials science. This collaboration aims to clarify the mechanisms of tumor development and progression, identify novel therapeutic targets, promote clinical translation, and ultimately benefit patients.
