A Unified Mathematical Language for Medicine and Science

Abstract

A unified mathematical language for medicine and science will be presented. Using this language, models for DNA replication, protein synthesis, chemical reactions, neurons and a cardiac cycle of a heart have been built. Models for Turing machines, cellular automaton, fractals and physical systems are also represented with the use of this language. Interestingly, the language comes with a way to represent probability theory concepts and also programming statements. With this language, questions and processes in medicine can be represented as systems of equations; and solutions to these equations are viewed as treatments or previously unknown processes. This language can serve as the framework for the creation of a large interactive open-access scientific database that allows extensive mathematical medicine computations. It can also serve as a basis for exploring ideas related to what could be called metascience.
