Metaphors in medicine
Abstract
Metaphors have been abundantly used in the history of medicine, describing health as harmony, the human body as mechanism, disease as disorder, and interpreting the doctor-patient relationship in terms of paternalism and consumerism. Today, metaphors are widely used by doctors and patients to describe conditions and experiences, such as burning pain, cluster headache, glue ear, whiplash injury or invasive cancer. They also play a special role in facilitating communication.

Beyond ethical post-mortems
Medicine and machines
Abstract
Future medicine will be personalized and democratized because patients will manage their own care and make decisions about medical interventions with the assistance of artifcial intelligence and robots. Medical care will no longer be controlled by physicians or medical experts. In the future, human beings will be digitized; everybody’s genetic constitution will be known and digitally accessible so that precise and individualized care will be ofered by robots.
