State of Population Health Analytics

State of Population Health Analytics | Co-creation in health | Scoop.it

The 2016 State of Population Health Analytics (SOPHA) study revealed that the healthcare industry is making progress, but at a slower pace than expected. This is due to the challenge of integrating multiple sources and types of data and a focus on the data and technology to the detriment of people, processes and leadership. Larger healthcare organizations are making more progress than smaller ones due to their greater access to resources.

Could tissue engineering mean personalized medicine?

Each of our bodies is utterly unique, which is a lovely thought until it comes to treating an illness -- when every body reacts differently, often unpredictably, to standard treatment. Tissue engineer Nina Tandon talks about a possible solution: Using pluripotent stem cells to make personalized models of organs on which to test new drugs and treatments, and storing them on computer chips. (Call it extremely personalized medicine.)

I often watch TED talks, specifically ones from the TEDMED conference. They keep me updated as to what's going on in modern medicine and what's the future to come. This particular TED talk was about personalized medicine which has become a relatively new concept in modern medicine. Personalized medicine is medicine that can be made to tailor to a specific person's genes. This is definitely something that I would like to research and hopefully personalized medicine becomes advanced and widely used in the future.
