The avalanche of research findings in complex multidisciplinary fields, such as cancer immunobiology, requests organizing and practical wol king models for scientists and clinicians. Frameworks from one scientific discipline can be adopted for another one, to clarify and provide new insights into complex findings A 'figure-ground' (FG) perspective was adopted from cognitive sciences to construct a simple organizing tool, which can assist in understanding tumour development and immunotheiapy designing In an FG arena, there is a figure that needs to be contrasted from a background to be seen by a viewer, who may have a mental representation of the figure
