While doctor-engineer collaborations are imperative for the advancement of medical technology to improve patient care, these partnerships are often fraught with poorly understood barriers, including differences in knowledge base, conflicts over authorship and difficulty in applying deterministic solutions to biological data. As there is scarce literature on the dynamics of doctor-engineer collaborations, this essay discusses these hurdles and proposes practical ways to overcome, or at least attenuate them.
虽然医生与工程师的合作对于推动医学技术进步以改善患者护理至关重要,但这些合作关系往往存在着许多理解不深的障碍,包括知识基础的差异、作者身份的冲突以及难以将确定性解决方案应用于生物数据等问题。由于关于医生与工程师合作的动态的文献很少,因此本文讨论了这些障碍,并提出了克服或至少减轻这些障碍的实际方法。
