Abstract
The ever-emerging developments and innovations on the advanced translational strategies for diagnosing and treating fatal human diseases are substantially re-shaping our future and improving the human health quality. This special issue published several mini-review manuscripts covering fundamental principles, techniques, devices and applications in the related fields. Several investigators including basic research scientists and medical doctors have described recent breakthroughs in the fields of cancer therapy, biomedical engineering, material sciences and their translational medicine from-bench-to-bed into clinical uses.
