Advanced Technologies for Disease Intervention - by Ranbir Chander Sobti & Aastha Sobti & Jagmohan Singh & Harpal S Buttar (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Advanced Technologies for Disease Intervention: Innovations Across Precision Medicine, Nutrition and Holistic Therapies, Two Volume Set investigates the current and emerging advances in disease detection, diagnosis, treatment and prevention, and how molecular medicine and biotechnology have contributed to this changing landscape. In the pursuit of sustainable development, biotechnological innovations are revolutionizing global health and well-being. These advancements enhance disease detection, diagnosis, treatment measures, and prevention, significantly improving life expectancy and quality of life worldwide. This comprehensive two-volume reference delves into these transformative developments, offering a state-of-the-art compendium on emerging therapies, technologies, and their applications in patient care. Volume 1 focuses on sustainable health practices through biotechnology, exploring traditional health systems, diagnostic innovations, and integrative therapies. Key topics include: the role of traditional medicine and practices in sustainable health; contemporary and emerging technologies such as aptamer diagnostics, telemedicine, nanomaterials and AI in healthcare; advances in regenerative medicine; innovations in reproductive health and aging including cryopreservation techniques and biotechnological developments in geriatric medicine; the role of computational biology in understanding uterine diseases; and the latest advances in obesity and type 2 diabetes management. Volume 2 then delves deeper into emerging technologies for disease intervention, focusing on drug development, delivery systems, nutrition, and natural products for health. Themes explored here include: developments and trends in drug discovery; drug repurposing; contemporary drug delivery systems; phototherapeutics; personalized drug delivery; innovations in vaccine development; the role of nutraceuticals in disease prevention; and the use of natural products and herbal interventions for sustainable health. This reference is essential for understanding the latest advancements in biotechnology and their applications in healthcare, and will be useful to researchers and students working across molecular biology, pharmaceutical science, the nutraceutical industry and related fields.
