What is 'Game Theory' Game theory is the study of human conflict and cooperation within a competitive situation. In some respects, game theory is the science of strategy, or at least the optimal decision-making of independent and competing actors in a strategic setting. The key pioneers of game theory were mathematicians John von Neumann and John Nash, as well as economist Oskar Morgenstern. BREAKING DOWN 'Game Theory'
The lungs are located in the chest on either side of the heart in the rib cage. They are conical in shape with a narrow rounded apex at the top, and a broad concave base that rests on the convex surface of the diaphragm.
All rights reserved. The lungs are a pair of spongy, air-filled organs located on either side of the chest (thorax). The trachea (windpipe) conducts inhaled air into the lungs through its tubular branches, called bronchi.The bronchi then divide into smaller and smaller branches (bronchioles), finally becoming microscopic. Pulmonary fibrosis: A form of interstitial lung disease. 2  The interstitium (walls between air sacs) become scarred, making the lungs stiff and causing shortness of breath. 3  Sarcoidosis: Tiny areas of inflammation can affect all organs in the body, with the lungs involved most of the time.
