Now, more than ever, drug discovery conducted at industrial or academic facilities requires rapid access to state-of-the-art research tools. Unreasonable restrictions or delays in the distribution or use of such tools can stifle new discoveries, thus limiting the development of future biomedical products. In grants and its own research programs the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is impleme...

With the rising influence of the Gene Ontology, new approaches have emerged where the similarity between genes or gene products is obtained by comparing Gene Ontology code annotations associated with them. So far, these approaches have solely relied on the knowledge encoded in the Gene Ontology and the gene annotations associated with the Gene Ontology database. The goal of this paper is to dem...

literature: it calls into question the generalizability of, and explanations for, the findings themselves. Are the strikingly consistent findings of medical socialization research truly inherent in medical education itself, evidence of some sort of global medical culture, or are they at least in part products of a wealthy Northern setting? What happens when the biomedical training studied in th...

In medicine, there are various divisions and professions. One of these is medical technology. Medical technology is the exercise of scientific and technical functions in medical laboratories. This can also be referred to as biomedical science. Medical technologists used various products in the diagnosis and disease treatment. This involves the preparation and analysis of body tissues, fluids an...

Consumers’ attitude towards hygiene and active lifestyle has created a rapidly increasing market for a wide range of antimicrobial textiles, which in turn has stimulated intensive research and development. As a result, the number of biofunctional textiles with an antimicrobial activity has increased considerably over the last few years. In a near future, biomedical products will perhaps be the ...

Terahertz (THz) radiation (0.1~10 THz) shows great potential in agricultural products detection, biomedical, and security inspection recent years. Machine learning methods are widely used to support the user demand of higher efficiency high prediction accuracy. The technological key challenges machine for THz spectroscopy image data preprocessing, reconstruction algorithms, qualitative quantita...

Thousands of biotech companies are developing promising products, but have insufficient resources to complete the clinical testing process, while large, well-funded companies have increasingly focused on the need to access external innovation. As a result, licensing deals are an essential and growing part of this industry. Yet, casting a shadow over the licensing market is the classic Lemons Pr...

Sterilization is a very popular word used in biomedical testing (like removal of all microorganisms on surface of an article or in fluid using appropriate chemical products). Motivated by this biological analogy, we, for the first time, introduce the concept of sterilization of an image, i.e., removing any steganographic information embedded in the image. Experimental results show that our tech...
