Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivated by the explosion of molecular data on humans-particularly data associated with individual patients-and the sense that there are large, as-yet-untapped opportunities to use this data to improve health outcomes, Toward Precision Medicine explores the feasibility and need for "a new taxonomy of human disease based on molecular biology" and develops a potential framework for creating one. The book says that a new data network that integrates emerging research on the molecular makeup of diseases with clinical data on individual patients could drive the development of a more accurate classification of diseases and ultimately enhance diagnosis and treatment. The "new taxonomy" that emerges would define diseases by their underlying molecular causes and other factors in addition to their traditional physical signs and symptoms. The book adds that the new data network could also improve biomedical research by enabling scientists to access patients' information during treatment while still protecting their rights. This would allow the marriage of molecular research and clinical data at the point of care, as opposed to research information continuing to reside primarily in academia. Toward Precision Medicine notes that moving toward individualized medicine requires that researchers and health care providers have access to very large sets of health- and disease-related data linked to individual patients. These data are also critical for developing the information commons, the knowledge network of disease, and ultimately the new taxonomy.

Download or read book Translational Research in Breast Cancer written by Dong-Young Noh and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-13 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes recent advances in translational research in breast cancer and presents emerging applications of this research that promise to have meaningful impacts on diagnosis and treatment. It introduces ideas and materials derived from the clinic that have been brought to "the bench" for basic research, as well as findings that have been applied back to "the bedside". Detailed attention is devoted to breast cancer biology and cell signaling pathways and to cancer stem cell and tumor heterogeneity in breast cancer. Various patient-derived research models are discussed, and a further focus is the role of biomarkers in precision medicine for breast cancer patients. Next-generation clinical research receives detailed attention, addressing the increasingly important role of big data in breast cancer research and a wide range of other emerging developments. An entire section is also devoted to the management of women with high-risk breast cancer. Translational Research in Breast Cancer will help clinicians and scientists to optimize their collaboration in order to achieve the common goal of conquering breast cancer.

Download or read book The Kaiyos Lex written by Bernard Lang and published by Kaiyos Lex Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-14 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity's descendants face certain annihilation as a nightmarish alien race carves a bloody path of destruction through the Frontier. One man must assume the mantel of absolute power if any are to survive. The Kaiyos Lex: Imperium introduces its readers to a brand-new universe set in the far distant future. The story weaves together fully fleshed out and immersive world building with fast paced action and intrigue in the best traditions of the space opera and military sci-fi genres. Betrayed and sent to die defending a distant planet, Praetor Gaius Aurelius Marcellus finds his most ruthless adversaries are not the genocidal aliens he's been sent to fight, but rather his erstwhile leaders, who will do whatever it takes to maintain their tenuous grip on power, even as their civilization burns around them. While navigating a lethal labyrinth of political intrigue, he uncovers an ominous secret, kept hidden from the public for centuries: a secret that promises to forever change the face of the galaxy, if he can live long enough to take advantage of it. As the situation grows ever graver, Marcellus must decide how far he’d go to ensure the safety of his people, and who he’d sacrifice to achieve his goals. In the end, he discovers the galaxy is more complex and treacherous than he could possibly imagine, or hope to prevail against. Purchase your copy of The Kaiyos Lex: Imperium today!

Download or read book Ant Colony Optimization written by Marco Dorigo and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-06-04 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An overview of the rapidly growing field of ant colony optimization that describes theoretical findings, the major algorithms, and current applications. The complex social behaviors of ants have been much studied by science, and computer scientists are now finding that these behavior patterns can provide models for solving difficult combinatorial optimization problems. The attempt to develop algorithms inspired by one aspect of ant behavior, the ability to find what computer scientists would call shortest paths, has become the field of ant colony optimization (ACO), the most successful and widely recognized algorithmic technique based on ant behavior. This book presents an overview of this rapidly growing field, from its theoretical inception to practical applications, including descriptions of many available ACO algorithms and their uses. The book first describes the translation of observed ant behavior into working optimization algorithms. The ant colony metaheuristic is then introduced and viewed in the general context of combinatorial optimization. This is followed by a detailed description and guide to all major ACO algorithms and a report on current theoretical findings. The book surveys ACO applications now in use, including routing, assignment, scheduling, subset, machine learning, and bioinformatics problems. AntNet, an ACO algorithm designed for the network routing problem, is described in detail. The authors conclude by summarizing the progress in the field and outlining future research directions. Each chapter ends with bibliographic material, bullet points setting out important ideas covered in the chapter, and exercises. Ant Colony Optimization will be of interest to academic and industry researchers, graduate students, and practitioners who wish to learn how to implement ACO algorithms.
