Grand Challenges for Engineering
Engineering Better Medicines,National Academy of Engineering, accessed 26 August 2014 (Grand Challenge). Many of the Grand Challenges involving medicine are very intriguing to me, especially the desire to design personal medications, based on a patient's genetic code.
The Role of Public Health Informatics Thomas G. Savel, MD, Seth Foldy, MD, CDC, 27 July 2012, 26 August 2014, (Grand Challenge).
Along similar lines to Engineering Better Medicines, advancing Health Informatics is another grand challenge that would provide a significant improvement in healthcare.
