\r\n\tDementia has become the leading neurological problem for human beings associated not only with the old population but newer generations as well. Various environmental and genetic factors are reported to be involved in the disease. This book hopes to comprise a detailed discussion on the relationship between different brain areas and cognition. Pathophysiology of dementia containing molecular mechanisms will be explained as well as the memory function that depends on the neuronal circuits among the different brain areas. Other neuronal circuits involved in memory, learning, and dementia will also be discussed. Mechanism of neuronal circuits involved in memory consolidation, the main neurological disorders associated with dementia, dementia screening, and its validation, along with neurophysiological tests, will be covered. Another aspect that this book hopes to cover is the modern therapeutic trends for the management of dementia. Biologics will be changing the therapeutic world of dementia in the near future. We aim to have a project that consists of various cutting-edge technologies that have been adopted for the treatment of dementia.

Applications",doi:"10.5772/intechopen.95011",slug:"iii-nitride-nanowires-future-prospective-for-photovoltaic-applications",body:'Photovoltaic (PV) technology is the most emerging way of harnessing huge amount of energy from sun light as compared to solar thermal and photo electrochemical cells [1]. PV devices convert incident photons from sunlight to electricity upon exposed to light. PVs are popular because of its compactness and can be used anywhere for different application [2]. Additionally, involvement of nanostructures further boost the performance of solar cell. Over the past decade, nanostructured solar cell has become hot topics within research community due to its potential to enhance the spectral response of cell. Although, first generation silicon wafer based solar cell leads the current global PV market, however this conventional technology do not have any further scope to improve efficiency and reduce cost [3]. Additionally, it is also not recommended to use Silicon based solar cell for space application due to its low radiation tolerance. Second generation thin film technology such as hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si: H), CIGS, and CdTe could not line-up with wafer-based silicon due to use of rare earth elements and low stability [4, 5]. Furthermore, highly efficient compound semiconductors based third generation solar cell have a demerit of high cost which limits its use in terrestrial applications. Hence, the hunt for low cost high performance solar cell are still unachievable. In the meantime, involvement of nanotechnology could bring a ray of hope for future generation solar cell. Nanowire (NW) geometry has remarkable advantages over planner geometry due to optical, electrical, and mechanical effects. New charge separation mechanisms, low defects and low cost also add more mileage to this journey. Looking towards the current scenario, existing PV technologies aren’t the solid foundation for the future projection of the renewable energy generation. None of the existing technology can satisfy global energy demand in future [2, 5]. Moreover, if the material or technological limitations restrict the future roadmap of PV technology, then the incorporation of new efficient materials and transpose of technology will be an assurance against high cost and low efficiency solar cells. Newly explored InxGa1-xN material brings an bunch of opportunities for future PV technology, having capability to absorb full solar spectrum using a single absorber material. One of the major properties of InGaN material is its tunable bandgap from 0.6 to 3.4 eV by changing ‘In’ content [6, 7, 8, 9, 10]. It also has easy growth of nanowire and nanorod structures with proven technology [11, 12, 13, 14]. It is a direct bandgap material where photon absorption and direct interband transition can be occurred without interference of phonons to conserve momentum. Additionally, high absorption coefficient of 105 is an additional benefit for good absorption with thin layer. Hence the cost can be minimized as well as recombination rate can also be minimized. InGaN also possess a high saturation velocity and a low effective mass of charge carriers, which ensures the more carrier separation along the junction. High radiation tolerance of InGaN are always appreciated for harsh environments. Moreover, InGaN solar cell do not contain any toxic elements such as arsenic, cadmium or phosphorous as used in MJ solar cell. Thus, it is evident that In
In the present context mainly different geometry of III-Nitride GaN/InGaN material based solar cell are considered, such as planar, nanodisk and nanowire types. Theoretically, it is anticipated that power conversion efficiency more than 40% could be achievable with GaN/InGaN junctions [19, 20]. However, practically achievable efficiency is quite low [21, 22]. One of the major challenges is the association of in-house defects with InGaN layer at higher ‘In’ content. Which in turn leads to stuck of immobile charges (known as polarization charges) along interfaces and reduces minority lifetime. Recently III-Nitride nanowires (NWs) are proposed as stand-alone PV devices due to enhanced light trapping, defect and stress-free growth [23, 24]. In general, two widely used structure for nanowire solar cell are (i) axial junction and (ii) radial junction. Axial junction is also known as nanodisk (ND) whereas radial junction is known as core-shell-shell (CSS) solar cell. Vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) technique is one of the popular methods to grow the GaN/InGaN nnaowires [23]. The fabricated NWs have hexagonal cross-section with {0001} orientation of top facet and {1–100}/ {10–10} orientation alongside walls of NWs [23]. Literature shows the comparative analysis of planar and circular NWs reported by Y. Zeng

All the material parameters for GaN and InGaN with different compostion can be found from [30]. The interpolation method is used to calculate all parameters for InxGa1-xN composite alloys. Defect density in the order of 1017, 1014 and 1012 are incorporated for planar, ND and CSS-NW SCs respectively [31].

Vertical illumination of light source on the front surface of the device is consider during all analysis as shown in Figure 1. Transport of carriers and separation mechanisms in the device depends solely on its geometrical structure. Here, carrier transport in planar, ND and NW type solar cell are explored with the help of energy band diagram. Figure 2(a) shows that tilt of energy band along

The optimized thickness of 100 nm, 150 nm and 180 nm i-InGaN is considered for all performance analysis. It shows a higher Jsc in CSS-NW as compared to ND and planar structure. It is anticipated that higher current in CSS-NW solar cell is mainly due to higher active absorption region and efficient carrier separation. It is important to highlight that planar and ND type solar cells shows a stair-case type

It is also observed that due to high degree of strain relation, low defects density and more active area of absorption, CSS-NW structure can accommodate higher thickness of active InGaN layer (W) region. Moreover, higher thickness of absorber enhances the probability of more absorption of photons from sunlight. In other hand, active region of planar and ND type solar cells cannot be increased due to are limitation of surface recombination arte, polarization induced electric field, low degree of strain relaxation and defect density. Voc of ND type solar cell is seen to be higher than CSS-NW type solar cell which is may be due to the recombination rate along the junction. However, the rate of increase in Jsc of CSS-NW structure is comparatively higher than ND and planar solar cell. Similarly, planar solar cell possesses a low as compared to ND and NW solar cell. It is mainly due to appearance of staircase type

Nanodisk (ND) | 150 | 1.93 | 2.52 | 87.6 | 4.28 |

In this chapter, the importance of nanowire solar cell with III-Nitride material is explored in a detailed manner. A comparative analysis is carried out with planar, nanodisk and nanowire type solar cell and concluded that nanowire type structure shows a better performance as compared to others. Additionally, it is found that nanowires in InGaN materials are grown either in triangular or hexagonal orientation. The strain relaxation is more in CSS-nanowires which in turns leads to low in-house defect density along the interfaces. CSS-NWs are also able to accommodate higher thickness of intrinsic material due to high carrier diffusion length. Radial separation of carriers also provides more surface area and better control on carrier separation mechanisms. Hence, it is concluded that radial growth of nanowire provides a broad range of opportunity for performance enhancement of solar cell. The similar type of observation are also applicable to LASER and light emitting diodes, where III-Nitride materials are used.

Chemotherapy has improved, but many drugs still do not reach the tumor site at effective doses and are often associated with high systemic toxicity and poor pharmacokinetics. Moreover, for many malignancies, diagnosis is obtainable only in metastatic stages of development, reducing the overall effectiveness of treatment. The choice of available treatments depends on tumor characteristics such as biomarkers, tumor size, metastatic disease, ligands, and antigen or endocrine receptor expression. Combined with surgical resection, chemotherapy and radiation remain the first line of treatment for patients with cancer. Even with these treatments, however, cancer continues to have high fatality rates and current therapeutic modalities have yet to significantly improve the often dismal prognosis of this disease. Nanotechnology is a highly focused approach, which may provide more effective and less toxic treatment when compared to chemotherapy. This area of research has emerged as cancer treatment in the form of new drugs and has reached promising results in preclinical and clinical trials proving its value as a potential tumor therapy.",book:{id:"5431",slug:"breast-cancer-from-biology-to-medicine",title:"Breast Cancer",fullTitle:"Breast Cancer - From Biology to Medicine"},signatures:"Márcia Rocha, Natalia Chaves and Sônia Báo",authors:[{id:"147895",title:"Dr.",name:"Sônia Nair",middleName:null,surname:"Báo",slug:"sonia-nair-bao",fullName:"Sônia Nair Báo"},{id:"190527",title:"MSc.",name:"Natalia",middleName:null,surname:"Chaves",slug:"natalia-chaves",fullName:"Natalia Chaves"},{id:"190529",title:"MSc.",name:"Marcia",middleName:null,surname:"Oliveira Da Rocha",slug:"marcia-oliveira-da-rocha",fullName:"Marcia Oliveira Da Rocha"}]}],mostDownloadedChaptersLast30Days:[{id:"53856",title:"Early-Stage Progression of Breast Cancer",slug:"early-stage-progression-of-breast-cancer",totalDownloads:1706,totalCrossrefCites:4,totalDimensionsCites:4,abstract:"Breast cancer can be defined as a group of diseases with heterogeneous origins, molecular profiles and behaviors characterized by uncontrolled proliferation of cells within the mammary tissue. Around one in eight women in the US will develop breast cancer in their lifetime, making it the second most frequently diagnosed cancer behind skin cancer [1]. In 2015, an estimated 231,840 cases of invasive carcinoma were diagnosed, and over 40,000 deaths were caused by breast cancer which accounts for almost 7% of all cancer mortality each year. In 2015, 60,290 cases of in situ breast cancer were diagnosed, representing over 14% of all new cancer cases among women and men. The steep increase in diagnosis of early‐stage breast cancer over the past 10 years is believed to be a result of more frequent mammography. However, since over half of these in situ lesions will not progress to invasive breast cancer, controversies have arisen about approaches to treatment and prevention of progression of early‐stage in situ breast cancer. Understanding the mechanisms of transition of normal breast to in situ pre‐neoplastic lesions and invasive breast cancer is currently a major focus of breast cancer research with implications for preventive and clinical management of breast cancer. In this review, we give an overview of current knowledge on the molecular and pathological changes that occur during early‐stage progression of breast cancer and describe some of the current models that are used to study this process.",book:{id:"5431",slug:"breast-cancer-from-biology-to-medicine",title:"Breast Cancer",fullTitle:"Breast Cancer - From Biology to Medicine"},signatures:"William Kietzman, Anna T.

Patients with the ER/PR(+)/HER2− subtype breast cancers show better clinical prognosis compared to the hormone-negative, triple-negative (TN), and HER2+ subtypes. TN, HER2+ tumors in postmenopausal women were of higher grade, showing lymph node and lymphovascular invasion with poor prognosis in all case series. However, the ER+/PR−/HER2+ subgroup had the lowest survival rates in 2- and 5-year follow-ups. Comparison between the ER+PR+HER2+ and ER+PR−HER2− subgroups showed that HER2− status is an indicator of improved prognosis in long-term follow-up. Single hormone receptor (HR)(+) status, particularly HER2(−) cases, was in between the favorable and poor survival subgroups. The ER−, PR−, and HER2+ properties were found to be risk factors for frequent recurrences. In this chapter, breast cancer subtypes are compared with each other.

The applications of this research cover many related fields, such as biotechnology and medicine, where, for example, Bioinformatics contributes to faster drug design, DNA analysis in forensics, and DNA sequence analysis in the field of personalized medicine. Personalized medicine is a type of medical care in which treatment is customized individually for each patient. Personalized medicine enables more effective therapy, reduces the costs of therapy and clinical trials, and also minimizes the risk of side effects. Nevertheless, advances in personalized medicine would not have been possible without bioinformatics, which can analyze the human genome and other vast amounts of biomedical data, especially in genetics. The rapid growth of information technology enabled the development of new tools to decode human genomes, large-scale studies of genetic variations and medical informatics. The considerable development of technology, including the computing power of computers, is also conducive to the development of bioinformatics, including personalized medicine. In an era of rapidly growing data volumes and ever lower costs of generating, storing and computing data, personalized medicine holds great promises. Modern computational methods used as bioinformatics tools can integrate multi-scale, multi-modal and longitudinal patient data to create even more effective and safer therapy and disease prevention methods. Main aspects of the topic are: Applying bioinformatics in drug discovery and development; Bioinformatics in clinical diagnostics (genetic variants that act as markers for a condition or a disease); Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning in personalized medicine; Customize disease-prevention strategies in personalized medicine; Big data analysis in personalized medicine; Translating stratification algorithms into clinical practice of personalized medicine.",annualVolume:11403,isOpenForSubmission:!0,coverUrl:"https://cdn.intechopen.com/series_topics/covers/7.jpg",editor:{id:"351533",title:"Dr.",name:"Slawomir",middleName:null,surname:"Wilczynski",fullName:"Slawomir Wilczynski",profilePictureURL:"https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/intech-files/0033Y000035U1loQAC/Profile_Picture_1630074514792",institutionString:null,institution:{name:"Medical University of Silesia",institutionURL:null,country:{name:"Poland"}}},editorTwo:null,editorThree:null,editorialBoard:[{id:"5886",title:"Dr.",name:"Alexandros",middleName:"T.",surname:"Tzallas",fullName:"Alexandros Tzallas",profilePictureURL:"https://mts.intechopen.com/storage/users/5886/images/system/5886.png",institutionString:"University of Ioannina, Greece & Imperial College London",institution:{name:"University of Ioannina",institutionURL:null,country:{name:"Greece"}}},{id:"257388",title:"Distinguished Prof.",name:"Lulu",middleName:null,surname:"Wang",fullName:"Lulu Wang",profilePictureURL:"https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/intech-files/0030O00002bRX6kQAG/Profile_Picture_1630329584194",institutionString:"Shenzhen Technology University",institution:{name:"Shenzhen Technology University",institutionURL:null,country:{name:"China"}}},{id:"225387",title:"Prof.",name:"Reda R.",middleName:"R.",surname:"Gharieb",fullName:"Reda R.
