The Use of ArtificialIntelligence Methods in the Evaluation of Medical Data by Gerard Pasternak in Research in Medical & Engineering Sciences The 20th century brought a very dynamic development of medicine as well as other fields of science. Leonard Hay flick writes towards the end of the 20th century in his book “How and Why We Age In 1900, as many as 75 percent of US citizens did not survive sixty-five years. Today, these statistics have almost reversed: about 70 percent live more than sixty-five years. What caused such a significant increase in the average life expectancy? Hay flick explains that this should be attributed “primarily to the decline in infant mortality”. Obviously this is a very important factor in raising the population’s life expectancy. Furthermore, it must be born in mind that both, life expectancy and quality of life are influenced by a whole array of environmental factors. Therefore, it is extremely important to be influenced by the most recent ach...

Tissue EngineeringApplications in Medicine by Lara Tutunji* in Research in Medical &Engineering Sciences Tissue engineering (TE) is a rapidly growing, interdisciplinary field within health sciences that is devoted to manufacturing intact tissue and organ constructs by imitation natural biological development. TE is considered to be a subfield of regenerative medicine . Tissue engineering, he field aims to regenerate whole biological components outside the body for eventual replacement therapy (i.e. implementation) via the manipulation of cells, natural of synthetic cell-supporting scaffold materials and bioactive molecules. The main use of tissue engineering is in all surgical subspecialties requiring viable transplantable body parts for the reconstruction of anatomic structures. Thus major issues in transplantation have been addresses such as a potentially inexhaustible source of tissue and organs as well circumventing the need for immune suppression by growing tissue fro...
