Book Introduction
Difficult biotechnology, made easy to understand
Biotechnology is difficult. To master IT, all you need is a smartphone.
We live in an era of one phone per person, so we are familiar with IT.
Even my grandmother knows what IT is.
Even elementary school students know this.
But bio is a little different.
We don't know much about what the human genome is, how immunotherapy works, whether a cold is different from a virus, or what umbilical cord stem cells are.
If you don't know, you will have wrong information.
If you don't know, you will lose interest.
If the public misunderstands a technology, that technology will face opposition rather than advancement.
So, we need to let you know.
This book was written to help the general public easily understand biotechnology.
This book divides the field of bio into five areas: health, medicine, appearance and psychology, cutting-edge technology, and viruses and diseases.
Each field deals with an independent topic.
So, I made it so that you can read the latter part of the text even if you don't know the first part.
By covering independent topics, we eliminated boredom, allowed readers to choose stories they were curious about and read them, and exposed them to common sense in various fields.
We covered the current status, future direction, and issues to think about on the topic, focusing on the contents of recent papers.

Publisher's Review
Now is the era of biotechnology
In 2016, the artificial intelligence AlphaGo defeated Lee Sedol, 9th Dan.
That's 4:1, a perfect victory.
He was the pride of the human brain, so much so that he named himself after the world he would conquer with stone.
That 9th Dan Go player was defeated without a fight.
Yes, that's right.
The world is changing rapidly.
Artificial intelligence is at the heart of change.
A reporter present at the press conference asked AlphaGo CEO Hassabis:
'Google spent 5 years, 250 programmers, and 500 billion won to create AlphaGo.
Surely you don't want to be number one at Baduk.
"What was AlphaGo created for?" was a question that the other attendees were also curious about. The CEO answered without hesitation.
'Businesses exist to make money.
We at Google invested in AI to make money.' Where will the money come from?
If the Fourth Industrial Revolution, centered around artificial intelligence, is the future trend, which sectors will benefit most from this new technology? The Economist magazine asked 622 economic experts.
The answer was clear.
Biotechnology is number one, followed by automobiles and semiconductors.
Why is biotechnology emerging as the goose that lays the golden eggs? Companies know best where to find the golden eggs.
In other words, it is the place that knows best how the world will flow and what the key trends are.
In which field is global corporation Google investing the most? Bio ventures.
Google's Verily company has developed a contact lens that automatically measures blood sugar levels and transmits them to a smartphone when worn.
Now, there is no need to skip breakfast and go to the hospital to measure your fasting blood sugar level.
No, it goes one step further and just by wearing it, your blood sugar level is automatically measured 24 hours a day and sent to your doctor.
Of course, the doctor is an artificial intelligence doctor.
Artificial intelligence doctors have already been introduced to domestic university hospitals.
More accurate than humans.
Plus, they give you quick answers 24 hours a day.
The story is that the 4th industrial revolution has already begun in the bio field.
Future trends are the direction in which people's desires are heading.
