This book offers a comprehensive overview of how to utilize the bioconvergence revolution to substantially enhance research productivity. It carefully addresses critical issues such as ethical dilemmas, collaborative dynamics, funding, and operational efficiency, complete with concrete examples of how to overcome these challenges. Historically, the natural world has served as a profound source of inspiration for technological innovation. The natural materials, structures, and processes found in organisms have facilitated numerous scientific advancements. Presently, the integration of nature with scientific research is intensified through convergence. The book explores this convergence as a multidisciplinary approach that leverages the synergies among digital technologies, material sciences, and biotechnology, aiming to significantly accelerate and broaden the scope of scientific breakthroughs.
This volume provides a scholarly account of the emerging opportunities catalyzed by bioconvergence, emphasizing the necessity for rigorous ethical frameworks and standards as biotechnologies and digital tools converge to explore new frontiers. It delves into the challenges of financing scientific advancement and articulates how funding underpins multidisciplinary research efforts. Featuring Israel as a leader in this revolutionary field, the book meticulously outlines the Israeli ecosystem as a paradigm of innovation in bioconvergence. This work possesses a broad interdisciplinary appeal, making it an essential resource for researchers in both industry and academia, as well as for scholars and funding bodies dedicated to the advancement of science.

Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
