The society that publishes the JCI, the American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI), is an honor society of physician-scientists dedicated to the advancement of research that broadens our understanding of human disease, helps to improve treatment, and inspires new generations of physician-scientists. This book is a valuable resource for medical students, graduate students, hospital staff, attending and practicing physicians, and biomedical researchers. The reviews inside examine the molecular mechanisms underlying a wide array of diseases and disorders affecting all major body systems. The fundamentals of the organ or physiological systems in question are presented alongside the genetic or physiological abnormalities that result in disease. The reviews provide an authoritative and comprehensive overview of human disease by building on known scientific concepts and treatments, translating that knowledge into the current practice of clinical medicine, and exploring where these advanced might take medicine over the next decade.
