These technologies are currently being used in clinical research and may eventually be translated to clinical practice. Computational Biology will enable “P4” medicine (Personalized, Participatory, Predictive, Preventive). Personalized biomedical simulations, enabled by high performance computing at BTRRs, will lead to predictive and preventive personalized medicine. BTRRs are building spatially realistic models, integrating functionality among software and approaches, and integrating knowledge derived from disparate data sources. Many research and medical uses derived and commercialized since 1980: laser scissors, chromosome cutting, laser tweezers, tissue ablation, optical coherence tomography, multi-photon microscopy, ovarian and brain photodynamic therapy Essential technologies (both instrumentation and approaches) for structure-based drug design have been developed at NCRR BTRRS: e.g. x-ray crystallography, NMR, and computational modeling Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) is used to trace how the human body processes small amounts of toxins or nutrients, in amounts an individual might normally ingest from food. This approach may be used in “individualized medicine” to determine the ideal dose of medicine to give to an individual patient Biomedical Technology Research Resources 50 Centers in 5 Broad Areas
