Shownotes Transcript

Healthcare has been changing rapidly since genomic data became available, and has opened the door to precise, targeted therapies and treatments for an individual. However, the amount of data that can be collected from a single genome is immense, especially when looking to learn about whole populations. For this, high processing computers and AI are necessary to help distil and analyse genomic data.

Dr Deborah Devis, a science journalist with the Royal Institution of Australia, talks to Dr Mileidy Giraldo, Global lead of Life Sciences at Lenovo about the future of personalised health care and the need for big data, high processing computers and intersectional expertise.Find the science of everything at cosmosmagazine.com
