The Transdisciplinary Journal of Engineering & Science (TJES) (ISSN 1949-0569) is an annual, peer-reviewed, open-access journal that connects the domains of science, engineering, art, culture, and society to tackle intricate societal issues. This journal disseminates transdisciplinary (TD) research outcomes that address some of the most pressing global challenges of our time, including climate change, poverty alleviation, cybersecurity, immigration, the effects of technological advancements on future employment and skills, sustainable development, contemporary social research, and education for a convergent future. The pursuit of specific research and educational accomplishments through transdisciplinary initiatives in the medical sector is strongly encouraged. Transdisciplinary Research Areas in the Medical Field The methodology should be designed to confront complicated health issues by recognizing the social, environmental, and behavioral influences that shape health outcomes. By going beyond the boundaries of standard medical research, it aspires to formulate more unified solutions, ultimately aiming for a holistic understanding of the intricate health challenges through the collaboration of different fields of expertise. This journal is particularly interested in the fields of bioengineering and biotechnology research. Bioengineering and biotechnology are considered a transdisciplinary field of engineering and science. Bioengineering merges principles from the physical, chemical, or mathematical sciences with engineering concepts to study biology, medicine, behavior, or health. It is an increasingly prominent transdisciplinary field of engineering and science that serves as a link between technology, medicine, and biology. To put it differently, the core aim of bioengineering is to apply engineering principles and design concepts within the context of medicine and biology. Biotechnology integrates knowledge and methodologies from various domains such as biology, chemistry, and engineering to address complex issues that require a holistic approach, utilizing insights from multiple fields to develop solutions. Biotechnology research often entails collaboration among diverse scientific and engineering disciplines, rendering it a multidisciplinary and complex field of inquiry. Biotechnology relies heavily on the natural sciences. A significant portion of biotechnology is linked to agricultural engineering and chemical engineering TJES publishes papers on
