Big data, scientific wellness and transforming healthcare
Update: 2017-07-31
Description
Prof Hood speaks with ecancer at WIN 2017 about predictive, preventive, personalised, participatory healthcare in his P4 Medicine Institute, and measuring what he terms Scientific Wellness.
He outlines how systems medicine and ongoing surveillance of genotyping may reveal the stages at which disease begins, spreads and evolves, as well as providing insight into treatment response and ongoing recovery.
Prof Hood considers the importance of keeping a patient's humanity at the centre of their genomic data, with psycho-social training to encourage lifestyle approaches to disease management.
