Synopsis

While basic science research explores into unraveling biological processes, pathways, and mechanisms to identify targets and understand disease progression, engineering focuses on developing techniques, equipment, and procedures to improve patient outcomes. Advancing Science and Innovation in Healthcare Research: Health Horizons not only contributes to the comprehension of human health and disease attenuation but also sheds light on mechanisms and introduces new techniques to combine these two areas and bridge knowledge gaps. Comprising 29 chapters, this book introduces readers to the application of modern technologies such as bioinformatics, bioengineering, and artificial intelligence for advancing human health. It explores the systems biology approach, utilizing (multi)omics techniques and metagenomic profiling. Researchers in systems biology, bioinformatics, and biomedical applications will find this an essential reference.
