- 00:03As creative leaders in medicine and science,
- 00:05we constantly push boundaries to advance
- 00:07medicine for the benefit of humanity.
- 00:09We're tapping into the limitless
- 00:10possibilities of biomedical data science,
- 00:12mining it to diagnose and treat
- 00:14all manner of health issues.
- 00:15We're at a juncture in history. Things
- 00:17are about to change.
- 00:18I say that medicine is now
- 00:20an information science,
- 00:21and at the Yale School of Medicine,
- 00:24we're leading the way.
- 00:25We can bring together data in ways
- 00:27that we could never do before,
- 00:29and it drives actionable information
- 00:31that we're able to put on the
- 00:33front lines of healthcare.
- 00:34And see it applied for the
- 00:36benefit of individual patients
- 00:37and for populations.
- 00:38Visualize
- 00:38data is not just about genetics,
- 00:40It's about social determinants of health.
- 00:42It's about access to care.
- 00:44It's about exposures that you
- 00:46had and fortunately we're able
- 00:48to capture those much better.
- 00:49Now we're also recognizing that there
- 00:51are issues around the quality of
- 00:53care that we can apply this new
- 00:56aged information science to ensure
- 00:58each person gets the right treatment
- 01:00at the right time in the right
- 01:02way for who they are getting to
- 01:04that real precision medicine we
- 01:06want to be on the discovery side.
- 01:08In that high risk,
- 01:10high reward activities,
- 01:11and those are currently in the
- 01:13funding environment not done
- 01:15through federal or state agencies.
- 01:17This is where academia has an
- 01:19advantage. It has the freedom to inquire.
- 01:22It has the interdisciplinary to collaborate.
- 01:24It has the students to infuse
- 01:26creativity and enthusiasm,
- 01:28and it has our mission to make
- 01:30impact on the lives of individuals.
- 01:33We're doing this because we want to make
- 01:36a difference. Learn
- 01:37how your gift can help define the
- 01:40future of biomedical data science.
