Description du livre
This book covers various aspects of the future of medicine, focusing on innovations in diagnostics, patient care, and drug discovery. With an increasing understanding of the structure and function of the human genome, along with continually improving laboratory and computational technologies, genomics has become progressively integrated into the core of biomedical research, medical practice, and the community. We are at the beginning of a fundamental shift in medicine, moving away from treating disease symptoms and toward curing diseases at their molecular causes. Artificial intelligence will aid in developing individually tailored therapies, gathering and exchanging big data, and advancing telemedicine to bring critical medical expertise to more patients worldwide. The future of medical artificial intelligence looks very promising, demonstrating that artificial intelligence can improve healthcare delivery. The twentieth century saw rapid advancements in disease prevention, including vaccine development and risk-factor prediction and intervention, nearly doubling global life expectancy. Healthcare has already entered the next phase of remarkable progress two decades into the twenty-first century. This book will be useful for health professionals interested in the future of medicine.
