Like most human diseases, tumors are complex traits, the genesis and development of which recruit a number of genes and several important biological processes. As proteins involved in common processes tend to be centralized in the same local area of protein-protein interaction networks, here a novel framework has been developed to identify which areas of the networks are most relevant to a phenotype.
