Landscape Metrics: Past Progress and Future Directions

Recent Progress and Future Directions

We review the foundations of Einstein’s general theory of relativity, discuss recent progress in the tests of relativistic gravity, and present motivations for new generation of high-accuracy gravitational experiments. We discuss the advances in our understanding of fundamental physics anticipated in the near future and evaluate discovery potential of the recently proposed gravitational experim...

Clinical reasoning assessment through medical expertise theories: past, present and future directions

  Exploration into the concept of "medical expert" dates back to more than 50 years ago, yet yielding three leading theories in the area of clinical reasoning, namely, knowledge structure, hypothetic-deductive, and dual process.
