Colour Photography as Applied to Medicine

I HERE can be no doubt that colour photographs are infinitely more valuable in the teaching of medicine than those in monochrome. This is made obvious by the increasing number of colour illustrations to be seen in the present-day medical textbooks and by the number of lantern slides in natural colour used by lecturers. There are many instances where colour photographs are essential to illustrat...

Systems Biology Approaches Applied to Regenerative Medicine

Systems biology is the creation of theoretical and mathematical models for the study of biological systems, as an engine for hypothesis generation and to provide context to experimental data. It is underpinned by the collection and analysis of complex datasets from different biological systems, including global gene, RNA, protein and metabolite profiles. Regenerative medicine seeks to replace o...
