The future of medicine is one where the public will expect, in fact demand, medical care to be delivered by a doctor with the support of data analytics. The sheer amount of data available exceeds the capacity of the human brain, therefore patient outcomes do not reflect the scientific rigor that exists. Collaborative intelligence is on the rise: artificial intelligence to uncover what can't be seen clearly and an empowered clinical workforce to harness its power.
