Computational modeling and simulation are playing an increasingly important role in oncology, bridging biological research, data science and clinical practice to better understand cancer complexity and inform therapeutic development. This special issue presents recent advances in multiscale modeling, artificial intelligence-driven systems, digital twins, and in silico trials, illustrating the evolving potential of computational tools to support innovation from bench to bedside. Together, these contributions outline a future in which precision medicine, adaptive therapies and personalized diagnostics are guided by integrative and predictive modeling approaches.

Purpose: The development of on-board cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has led to improved target localization and evaluation of patient anatomical change throughout the course of radiation therapy. HyperSight, a newly developed on-board CBCT platform by Varian, has been shown to improve image quality and HU fidelity relative to conventional CBCT. The purpose of this study is to benchmark the dose calculation accuracy of Varian's HyperSight cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) on the Halcyon platform relative to fan-beam CT-based dose calculations and to perform end-to-end testing of HyperSight CBCT-only based treatment planning.

Accurate three-dimensional localisation of ultrasonic bat calls is essential for advancing behavioural and ecological research. I present a comprehensive, open-source simulation framework-Array WAH-for designing, evaluating, and optimising microphone arrays tailored to bioacoustic tracking. The tool incorporates biologically realistic signal generation, frequency-dependent propagation, and advanced Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) localisation algorithms, enabling precise quantification of both positional and angular accuracy.

Introduction: Initially developed for transcriptomics data, pathway analysis (PA) methods can introduce biases when applied to metabolomics data, especially if input parameters are not chosen with care. This is particularly true for exometabolomics data, where there can be many metabolic steps between the measured exported metabolites in the profile and internal disruptions in the organism. However, evaluating PA methods experimentally is practically impossible when the sample's "true" metabolic disruption is unknown.

Purpose: The design and development of ventricular assist devices have heavily relied on computational tools, particularly computational fluid dynamics (CFD), since the early 2000s. However, traditional CFD-based optimization requires costly trial-and-error approaches involving multiple design cycles. This study aims to propose a more efficient VAD design and optimization framework that overcomes these limitations.

The internal resistance of axons to ionic current flow determines action potential conduction velocity. Although mitochondria support axonal function, axons have been modeled as organelle-free cables, and mitochondrial impact on conduction velocity, specifically by increasing internal resistance, remains understudied. We combine computational modeling and electron microscopy of forebrain premotor axons controlling birdsong production.
