“Transdisciplinary Medicine in Healthcare Systems Engineering”

Special Issue Information

The integration of engineering and medicine forms the foundation of Healthcare Systems Engineering (HSE) Transdisciplinary Medicine in Healthcare Systems Engineering (MHSE) combines engineering principles, data science, and systems thinking with clinical medicine to enhance healthcare delivery, improve patient outcomes, and increase operational efficiency. This method is integrative, transcending traditional academic and clinical boundaries to tackle complex, real-world health challenges

The examples of key topics are:
--Merging Systems Science, Robotics, and Human Factors for a Robust Healthcare System
--Digital Twins in Public Health
--Development of user-focused medical devices
--Micro-Robotics for Targeted Therapy
--Creating urban spaces and healthcare facilities
--Obesity and Nutritional Policy
--The Global Health Workforce Crisis
--Bio-Integrated Electronics: Developing soft and flexible sensors
--Creating and developing medical implants 
--Micro-Robotics for targeted therapy
--Application of 3D printing in medicine, healthcare, and engineering
