Although therapies are efficient in treating diseases, some of the treatments can be more efficient in some patients, while for others, the response is mitigated. Precision medicine or personalized medicine is an innovative therapeutic approach that focuses on tailoring therapies based on the patient’s genetic content or other molecular or cellular analysis [1]. To inform…
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by an uncontrolled division of cells known as proliferation that may lead to invasion and destruction of local and surrounding tissues and organs. This invasion step may be followed by the passage of the invasive cancer cells into the circulatory system and their spreading to other organs of…
3D printing is becoming a major tool in manufacturing, industrial, medical, and sociocultural applications. This technology allows the construction of a three-dimensional object from 3D models through processes that require the deposition of materials, such as liquid molecules or grain powders, that are joined or solidified together to generate functional objects. In manufacturing and industry,…
Gene therapy is a field of biology or medicine that focuses on introducing or replacing defective genes that are involved in the etiology of some genetic diseases. To introduce or replace defective genes, this approach involves using viral or non-viral vectors to insert healthy copies of genes into the cells of affected people to re-establish their normal…
Regenerative medicine is a therapeutic medical field that focuses on developing technologies that use stem cells to replace, engineer, or regenerate human or animal cells, tissues, or organs with the aim of restoring or establishing normal function. Stem cells have the capacity to self-renew and differentiate into different types of cells that are found in…
