Welcome
Data and its management are a central concern for many health- science professionals since AI, a burgeoning area of biotechnology, is only as good as the data it uses. For more on this read Through The Looking Glass (page 9), an article exploring how DeepMirror, an innovative UK-based company, is making already discovered research pathways available to health-science customers via its many and varied datasets. In a second data-focused article called Decoding Data Meaning (page 10) we look at why the health-science sector is more advanced than others in its use of data. A fascinatingly futuristic
development called organ-on-a- chip is explored in Next Generation Drug Discovery on page 38 - this clever product acts as a bridge between human and animal models in the lab. In addition, the way that 3D
printed medical implants might avoid infection or rejection is explored in more detail in Topography And Medical Device Effectiveness on page 14. As a scientific journal that aims
to reflect the concerns of the wider industry, it would be remiss not to include a piece or two on waste reduction, and our articles Improving Lab Sustainability and Walking Off Waste on pages 16 and 18 aim to help improve your green credentials. Feel free to contact me regarding an article you might want to contribute to Eurolab or any subject you would like to see covered. Either way I'd love to hear from you!
