CIP record. Publication date: 08 2019 A century of advances in infectious disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention changed the face of medicine and global health. However, challenges persist including high mortality from sepsis, emerging antimicrobial resistance, and globalization that increases pandemic risks. More recently, similar achievements are being made in the field of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, but gains are slowed by difficulties with non-specific, clinical diagnoses. These challenges can be mitigated through implementation of the tools of precision medicine. This volume covers a broad range of topics where use of these tools holds promise for an exciting era of rapid progress.
