Seminar Information
Healthcare is becoming more proactive and data-rich than anything before possible - and will increasingly focus on maintaining and enhancing wellness more than just reacting to disease. Lee Hood and I have recently launched a large-scale 100K wellness project that integrates genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, microbiomes, clinical chemistries and wearable devices of the quantified self to monitor wellness and disease.
I present results from our proof-of-concept pilot study in a set of 108 individuals (the Pioneer 100 study) over the past year, showing how the interpretation of this data led to actionable findings for individuals to improve health and reduce risk drivers of disease.
