Cognitive Computing to Guide Molecular‐Based Therapy Selection: Steps Forward amid Abundant Need

This is an exciting time for clinical and translational oncology. Revolutionary advances in DNA sequencing technology have paralleled the growth of geneand pathway-targeted therapeutics, resulting in more rational, efficient, and effective drug development pipelines centered on tumor-specific genetic abnormalities. The need to enhance this paradigm by expanding the genetic information we obtain...

Traditional Medicine: The Need to Revive and Return to the Past amid the Outbreak of Coronavirus

Importance of this therapeutic method in Iran is more prominent than other countries in the world for two main reasons; the first one is plant richness, biodiversity, having 11 climates of 13 world-known climates, and diversity of 8000 plant species that are considered as an exclusive capacity in Iran. The second is considering the possibility of inadequate access to medicine at the internation...

Using Cognitive Biases to Guide Feature Set Selection

Although learning is a cognitive task, machine learning algorithms, in general, fail to take advantage of existing psychological limitations. In this paper, we examine three well-known cognitive biases: 1) the tendency to rely on the most recent information, 2) the heightened accessibility of the subject of a sentence, and 3) short term memory limitations. In a series of experiments, we modify ...

Mesenchymal stem cell therapy: Two steps forward, one step back.

Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy is poised to establish a new clinical paradigm; however, recent trials have produced mixed results. Although MSC were originally considered to treat connective tissue defects, preclinical studies revealed potent immunomodulatory properties that prompted the use of MSC to treat numerous inflammatory conditions. Unfortunately, although clinical trials have met ...
