Among many other hundreds of books which I should be reading, this essential biochemistry seems to be one! Credit goes to Jukka Nurminen, our cross-business area collaborator for introducing the book. Though shalt be read, Mr. Biochemistry!
The second book that Jukka introduced was Bioinformatics: sequence and genome analysis. Well, I was familiar with this book earlier; so this was a reminder for the relevance of this book to me, now more than ever!
Alternative title: proposal for a health care project. Diseases such as hypertension (high blood pressure), diabetes, obesity are becoming so common nowadays. It is hard to find people with no diseases. The lifestyle is certainly to be blamed. But what is the use if we just shut our mouth after finding the right thing to blame? Or how would I be different if I leave it there. So, here is a proposal for an automatic health-care system. Well, I know there maybe some treatments, but the idea here is to prevent the diseases. But, prevention really demands prediction of the disease occurrance much before the disease symptoms show off. But, since I am not a palmist or an astrologist, my proposal is to develop a method to stop the disease as soon as its onset or the symptoms appear. OK... it will become more clear as I go with the concrete examples. I would like to concentrate on hypertension and diabetes, because they appear to be the most common diseases. As most of you know, the best cure...
