  • Title: Some observations on the interdigitation of advances in medical science and mathematics.
    Author: Glamore MJ, West JL, O'leary JP.
    Journal: Am Surg; 2013 Dec; 79(12):1231-4. PubMed ID: 24351346.
    Abstract:
    The immense advancement of our understanding of disease processes has not been a uniform progression related to the passage of time. Advances have been made in "lurches" and "catches" since the advent of the written word. There has been a remarkable interdependency between such advances in medicine and advances in mathematics that has proved beneficial to both. This work explores some of these critical relationships and documents how the individuals involved contributed to advances in each.
