The Coming Age of Future Medicine: Next Frontier

Krishna Murari, Neeraj Kumar Sharma and Sudhanshu Kumar Bharti

The era of modern medicine is driven by recent advances in bioanalytical and bioinformatics technologies and the novel insights into human biology that are emerging through the application of these technologies. Physics and its discoveries have been at the forefront of medical diagnosis and treatment since the discovery of X-rays in 1895. Since then, biological researches have been renovating from a descriptive or phenomenological to a quantitative and predictive discipline by employing the physics covering possible degrees of freedom leading to changes in the way biological systems are understood.
