Scientific advances driven by the COVID pandemic have the potential to transform personalized medicine, say researchers, who outline steps to fully realize this potential.
They believe that innovations in biomedical science, big data and vaccines as a result of trying to tackle coronavirus infections could revolutionize medicine and improve population health.
But according to their article in Frontiers of Science, there needs to be equitable access to these advances worldwide and interdisciplinary collaboration for this to happen.
Safeguards will also be needed in systems medicine, a multidisciplinary approach in which diseases are understood through the analysis of large patient datasets to create dynamic models for different scenarios.
Specifically, the authors stress that AI applications would need to be more transparent...
