Increasing the Discovery Power and Confidence Levels of Disease Association Studies: A Survey [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
The majority of common diseases are influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors such as Cancer. Even though uncovering the main causes of disease is deemed difficult due to the complexity of gene-gene and gene-environment interactions, major research efforts aim at identifying disease risk factors, especially genetic ones.

Bimanual Manipulation of Steady Hand Eye Robots with Adaptive Sclera Force Control: Cooperative vs. Teleoperation Strategies [PDF]

arXiv
Performing retinal vein cannulation (RVC) as a potential treatment for retinal vein occlusion (RVO) without the assistance of a surgical robotic system is very challenging to do safely. The main limitation is the physiological hand tremor of surgeons. Robot-assisted eye surgery technology may resolve the problems of hand tremors and fatigue and improve
