Abstract:
With the development of numerous advances in science and technologies, medical science has also been updated. Internal medicine is one of the most valuable specialized fields of medical sciences that review a broad range of diseases. Herein, the internal medicine specialist (internist) is obliged to do diagnostic measures to evaluate disease signs and symptoms. In recent times, biomedical sciences as the new emergence science (including cellular and molecular biology, genetics, nanobiotechnology, bioinformatics, biochemistry, etc.) have been capable of providing more specific diagnostic methods together with techniques for better understanding the mechanism of the disease and the best diseases modeling and offering proper therapies. Accordingly, the authors have tried to review the link between biomedical sciences and medicine, particularly internal medicine.
