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.

This is definitely something that I would like to research and hopefully personalized medicine becomes advanced and widely used in the future.
