This book is comprised of enhanced, expanded, and updated versions
of articles previously published in the the International Journal
of Public and Private Perspectives on Healthcare, Culture, and the
Environment (IJPPPHCE). The chapters will highlight critical trends
focusing on the relationship between the public sphere, private
sector, medicine, environmental health and wellbeing, and society.
It covers critical topics such as environmental sustainability,
ethics and medicine, healthcare and administration, corporate
social responsibility, pollution and waste management, and related
topics, and how the public sector and private industries contribute
to these factors. This book will be interdisciplinary and
cross-disciplinary in its nature, as it is intended for a broad
audience with interests in Healthcare, Culture, or the Environment
or specifically professionals, policy makers, researchers, and
graduate-level students in the fields of sociology, environmental
science, public policy, healthcare administration, and business.
Bioinformatics for Everyone provides a brief overview on currently
used technologies in the field of bioinformatics-interpreted as the
application of information science to biology- including various
online and offline bioinformatics tools and softwares. The book
presents valuable knowledge in a simplified way to help students
and researchers easily apply bioinformatics tools and approaches to
their research and lab routines. Several protocols and case studies
that can be reproduced by readers to suit their needs are also
included.
Digital Innovation for Healthcare in COVID-19 Pandemic: Strategies
and Solutions provides comprehensive knowledge and insights on the
application of information technologies in the healthcare sector,
sharing experiences from leading researchers and academics from
around the world. The book presents innovative ideas, solutions and
examples to deal with one of the major challenges of the world, a
global problem with health, economic and political dimensions.
Advanced information technologies can play a key role in solving
problems generated by the COVID-19 outbreak. The book addresses how
science, technology and innovation can provide advances and
solutions to new global health challenges. This is a valuable
resource for researchers, clinicians, healthcare workers,
policymakers and members of the biomedical field who are interested
in learning how digital technologies can help us avoid and solve
global disease dissemination.
Improving quality of life is one of the main advantages of
integrating new innovations into medicine. New technologies are
revolutionizing medicine and opening new opportunities for
patients, doctors, clinics, and companies. The patient's well-being
is monitored autonomously by smartphones, digital medical records
simplify everyday clinical work, virtual reality is used for
treatment, and robots help in the operating room. The new
technological possibilities in healthcare not only change patients'
lives, but also the work of doctors, clinics, and companies. In the
fields of healthcare and medicine, new technologies can be used for
patient communication, health monitoring, or for the treatment of
patients, and modern research is devoted to advancing and
understanding these technologies. Ethical Implications of Reshaping
Healthcare With Emerging Technologies includes the most up-to-date
research in the fields of healthcare and medicine worldwide,
provides answers to the forms of treatment that are already
possible in medicine, and illuminates the future possibilities that
are already being researched. In addition, today's knowledge is
translated and shown in how new technologies such as autonomous
VR-system can be used for pain reduction as part of a treatment.
Finally, this book examines the ethical guidelines in healthcare
and medicine that are associated with the rapid development of
these technologies. This book will be useful for the healthcare
industry, hospital administration, the health insurance industry,
doctors, healthcare workers, business professionals, IT
specialists, medical software designers, scientists, practitioners,
researchers, academicians, and students looking for the latest
information on the use of emerging technologies in healthcare
settings.

Lean thinking involves more than just eliminating waste; through
its five guiding principles-value, value chain, continuous flow,
pull production, and perfection-its successful applications are
commonly found in the manufacturing sector. Although its
application and benefits to companies is no longer contested, it is
rare to find works that consolidate applications of lean thinking
in sectors that are unconventional, such as healthcare and
government. Cases on Lean Thinking Applications in Unconventional
Systems allows readers to broaden their view on lean thinking
applications and visualize insights for research. It presents case
studies and applications of lean thinking within several different
industries. Covering topics such as emergency care units,
standardized work, and national humanization policy, this case book
is an essential resource for engineers, hospital administrators,
healthcare professionals, IT managers, government officials,
students and faculty of higher education, researchers, and
academicians.
Environmental Systems Science: Theory and Practical Applications
looks at pollution and environmental quality from a systems
perspective. Credible human and ecological risk estimation and
prediction methods are described, including life cycle assessment,
feasibility studies, pollution control decision tools, and
approaches to determine adverse outcome pathways, fate and
transport, sampling and analysis, and cost-effectiveness. The book
brings translational science to environmental quality, applying
groundbreaking methodologies like informatics, data mining, and
applications of secondary data systems. Multiple human and
ecological variables are introduced and integrated to support
calculations that aid environmental and public health decision
making. The book bridges the perspectives of scientists, engineers,
and other professionals working in numerous environmental and
public health fields addressing problems like toxic substances,
deforestation, climate change, and loss of biological diversity,
recommending sustainable solutions to these and other seemingly
intractable environmental problems. The causal agents discussed
include physical, chemical, and biological agents, such as per- and
polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), SARS-CoV-2 (the COVID-19 virus),
and other emerging contaminants.
