Disrupting Healthcare Using Deep Data and Remote Monitoring with Michael Snyder

Video Description

Despite wearables existing for a long time, their potential benefits for human health have yet to be fully explored. Whether measured in blood, motion, or environment, each person’s health is unique and changes over time. Imagine a future where you can receive a text message to take an at-home test and then get the results shot right over to your primary care physician. Or you can wear a health tracker that can detect an infectious disease, anemia, or even type II diabetes and cancer before noticing them as symptoms and seeking medical care. Join Dr. Michael Snyder to learn about the latest research on individualized medicine and how real-time health monitoring and the power of long-term, deep data on individual patients can save lives. As a pioneer of Precision Medicine, Dr. Michael Snyder has invented many technologies enabling the 21st century of healthcare including systems biology, RNA sequencing, and protein chip. Dr. Snyder has initiated the Big Data approach to healthcare through his work using omics to detect early stage disease, including wearables to detect infectious diseases like COVID-19, and at-home microsampling to measure hundreds of molecules from a single drop of blood. He is the first researcher to gather petabytes of data on individuals, which is 1 Million - 1 trillion times more data than the average clinician collects. He has published over 800 papers and is one of the most cited scientists. In terms of commercial success, Mike has co-founded 17 companies (including 2 unicorns) with a combined enterprise value of over $6 billion.
