Big Data – The Right Path Towards Personalized Medicine?
The possibility to capture an increasing number of descriptions from individuals open new avenues to better understand heterogenous disorders. However, Big Data alone won´t be enough; data curations and analyses need to be designed to deliver highly accurate predicted risk profiles and treatment recommendations. By discussing multiple sclerosis, a heterogenous and complex autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system, this presentation will discuss the need not only for capturing various data points but also for introducing clinical standards translating data into clinically meaningful information.
