Abstract

Bridging the gaps between medical knowledge and modern technologies to target large-scale societal health and wellness problems is no small challenge. Multiple efforts are currently underway to tackle these grand challenges. The focus is on several of the largest worldwide health issues of cancer and neurological disorders although it also extends to many wellness-related issues. Although, the overarching goal still remains the same – a decrease in mortality and morbidity via unique and personalized technologies so that our day-to-day lives are improved.
