Philosophy of Medicine is a branch of philosophy focusing on the theory, research, and practice in the field of health science. Philosophy of Medicine explores topics like epistemology (the philosophy of knowledge), metaphysics (the philosophy of being), and medical ethics (analysis of the practice of clinical medicine).
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a three-dimensional structure that provides physical support for tissues/organs and biochemical/biomechanical cues for tissue morphogenesis, differentiation...
During this seminar I will present details of my path from Beckman Scholar to MD-PhD, advanced training as a neurologist, then a neurointensivist, and the interleaving of additional research...
Background: Acute liver injury (ALI) is characterised by hepatocyte death and liver inflammation. Macrophages play a pivotal role in ALI by phagocytosing dead cells and producing pro-regener...
Molecular profiling is key in precision oncology research and whilst the tissue testing has become a routine, liquid biopsy might provide a non-invasive alternative when tissue biopsy is ina...
The development of molecular targeted therapy is one of the breakthroughs in oncology field. Molecular profiling of the tumor becomes mandatory in the routine clinical practice to select the...
