Large-Scale Biomedical Science
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309089123
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
The nature of biomedical research has been evolving in recent years. Technological advances that make it easier to study the vast complexity of biological systems have led to the initiation of projects with a larger scale and scope. In many cases, these large-scale analyses may be the most efficient and effective way to extract functional information from complex biological systems. Large-Scale Biomedical Science: Exploring Strategies for Research looks at the role of these new large-scale projects in the biomedical sciences. Though written by the National Academies' Cancer Policy Board, this book addresses implications of large-scale science extending far beyond cancer research. It also identifies obstacles to the implementation of these projects, and makes recommendations to improve the process. The ultimate goal of biomedical research is to advance knowledge and provide useful innovations to society. Determining the best and most efficient method for accomplishing that goal, however, is a continuing and evolving challenge. The recommendations presented in Large-Scale Biomedical Science are intended to facilitate a more open, inclusive, and accountable approach to large-scale biomedical research, which in turn will maximize progress in understanding and controlling human disease.

Book Description
This book on complementary alternative medicine (CAM) for the Elderly provides a critical and objective evaluation of alternative medical therapy for the elderly. The focus on practical aspects such as adverse effects and general risks of various therapeutic methods makes it a valuable reference book for the general practitioner, for geriatricians and professionals within the area of alternative medicine, but also for interested laypeople. In the three sections, Epidemiology, Types of CAM, and Common Medical Problems and CAM, a broad range of issues are covered. They range from drug compliance in elderly people to CAM in the treatment of specific conditions such as pulmonary diseases, arthritis or cancer. The above features and in particular the unbiased approach to discuss the pros and cons of CAM make this publication a must-have for everybody searching for detailed information on alternative medicine for the elderly.
Arsenic in Drinking Water

Pages : 241
Book Description
Having safe drinking water is important to all Americans. The Environmental Protection Agency's decision in the summer of 2001 to delay implementing a new, more stringent standard for the maximum allowable level for arsenic in drinking water generated a great deal of criticism and controversy. Ultimately at issue were newer data on arsenic beyond those that had been examined in a 1999 National Research Council report. EPA asked the National Research Council for an evaluation of the new data available. The committee's analyses and conclusions are presented in Arsenic in Drinking Water: 2001 Update. New epidemiological studies are critically evaluated, as are new experimental data that provide information on how and at what level arsenic in drinking water can lead to cancer. The report's findings are consistent with those of the 1999 report that found high risks of cancer at the previous federal standard of 50 parts per billion. In fact, the new report concludes that men and women who consume water containing 3 parts per billion of arsenic daily have about a 1 in 1,000 increased risk of developing bladder or lung cancer during their lifetime.

Pages : 1006
Book Description
The International Complete Collection of R&D Information about Traditional Chinese Materia Medica (TCMM) and Biotechnology (BT) Enterprises is designed as an informative medicinal reference directory listing of up-to-date R&D information about TCMM, medical biotechnology, and related medical equipment companies. The focus of this valuable and practical directory is on providing a comprehensive coverage of the most recent developments in scientific research, patents and major products of about 3,000 companies from 50 countries covering the five continents: Asia, Europe, America, Africa and the Oceania. The resource material and information are relevant and compulsory to practitioners and professionals in the fields of TCMM, medical biotechnology, biochemical industry and related medical instrumentation/equipment, as well as to organizational departments of the medicinal information management, intelligence, logistics and trade. The directory also opens up and serves as an important window through which biotech professionals master product information of their counterparts across the world. The directory will benefit professionals of medical heath, TCMM, biotechnology and related fields, as well as academics and students, executives of research, information media staffs and translators.
