EHiN 2 – session B2: Predictive Analytics, Precision Medicine

What if…Like in the movie Back To The Future, we could look into the future and make qualified choices based on what we learned and what we know. Well, this is what Predictive Analytics and Precision Medicine is about. More specifically, Precision Medicine is about being able to classify people precisely, based on their susceptibility, their microbiology and/or their prognosis, at a considerably higher resolution than ever before.
The session will present great examples and correlations between predictive analytics and health related outcomes.

Moderator Eirik Nikolai Arnesen, medical doctor
