Initiatives in the biomedical industry.
Achievements in the healthcare industry are related to the needs of the patients and the surgeons. Often a new technique in surgery forces industry to produce products to fulfil the needs of the new techniques. Laparoscopic surgery is a good example of this. The reverse is also true: that new discoveries in industry allow new procedures to be created around the new industrial achievement. Joseph Lister once said 'success is attention towards detail', a truism just as opposite today as it was 100 years ago.
