New Diabetes Study Shows How Big Data Might Drive Precision Medicine

To this point, it’s largely been an article of faith that such rich integrated datasets would be useful and clinically important. The hope this paper represents is that perhaps we’re finally closing in on a tipping point, or a coalescence point, when we’ll at last see a compelling return on all the upfront effort involved in creating such a rich datasets, and also start to see which sorts of data collisions generate the most impactful results.
