A Database Month event http://www.DBMonth.com/database/bigdata
Truly personalized medicine has been a goal for a very long time. The rapidly-falling costs of DNA sequencing & the (re-)emergence of machine learning & other analytics tools are creating a unique opportunity to reshape how medicine & medical research are practiced & care delivered.
This talk will outline how next-generation DNA sequencing & tools developed at companies like LinkedIn & Twitter are enabling a NYC-local biotech company to provide personalized medicine to improve the health of people across the country.
