Preface
Medicine and health care are currently faced with a significant rise in their complexity. This is partly due to the progress made during the past three decades in the fundamental biological understanding of the causes of health and disease at the molecular, (sub)cellular, and organ level. It is also partly caused by the increased specialization of both biomedical research and clinical practice, and greater involvement o
