Converging biofabrication and organoid technologies: the next frontier in hepatic and intestinal tissue engineering?
Adult tissue stem cells can form self-organizing 3D organoids in vitro. Organoids resemble small units of their organ of origin and have great potential for tissue engineering, as well as models of disease. However, current culture technology limits the size, architecture and complexity of organoids. Here, we review the establishment of intestinal and hepatic organoids and discuss how the conve...
متن کاملA new methodology for deriving the efficient frontier of stocks portfolios: An advanced risk-return model
In this paper after a general literature review on the concept of Efficient Frontier (EF), an important inadequacy of the Variance based models for deriving EFs and the high necessity for applying another risk measure is exemplified. In this regard for this study the risk measure of Lower Partial Moment of the first order is decided to replace Variance. Because of the particular shape of the pr...

Quantitative approaches and application of fundamentals are the currency of chemical engineers. Our accomplishments in pharmaceuticals, food, materials, and energy are unsurpassed in providing solutions critical to societal well-being. For the last 40 years, spurred by the biological revolution and the expansion of the pharmaceutical industry into biologics, chemical engineering—as in any robus...
متن کاملPrinciplism versus Utilitarianism in Translational Medicine Ethics
Translational medicine is a rather new research area, as it was mentioned for the first time in 1996, in the PubMed publication index, while bearing as a motto “From bench to bedside”. Its complexity and novelty manage to raise a series of problems, in both medical and bioethical terms. The intricacy of translational medicine resides in the implication of several related research areas, such as...
متن کاملTranslational Dentistry: The New Frontier in Dental Practice
We stand at the edge of a new frontier in health care. The Affordable Care Act-2010 has encouraged researchers and clinicians to work constructively and cooperatively toward maximizing convergent translational patient-centered, effectivenessfocused and evidence-based health care. While developing innovative molecular and cellular biology techniques to inform translational research, the field ha...
