Document Summary

Computing plays an increasingly important role in medicine and food, traditionally in magnetic resonance imaging (mri), computing tomography (ct), and moving quickly to unexpected applications such as remote diagnostics and surgeries. New analyses at the molecular and gene level are also beginning to yield fruits. Computing in medicine is also introduced in popular commercial products in the forms of apps using tablets, smartwatches, and other internet-based personalized devices. Potential issues: medical and biological data can overload us with more information that we can handle. New technology may not be well received by the general public and affect the labor market of the future. Beyond demonstrating technical feasibility, touchless interaction in surgery should be designed to work within operating-theatre practices. Gesture design should consider not only individual interaction with medical images but how they are used in the context of collaborative discussion.
