Former Intel technologist and patient advocate Eric Dishman will headline the upcoming Health Data Analytics conference in Brisbane, appearing by video conference to explain the US Precision Medicine Initiative (PMI) cohort program that is aiming to build a longitudinal research study of one million volunteers to study the use of precision medicine in improving health and treating disease.
The conference, being hosted by the Health Informatics Society of Australia (HISA) in Brisbane next month, will also feature a keynote speech on how to use the SMART on FHIR set of specifications to write apps for clinical data, as well a debate on the cybersecurity strategy – or lack thereof – of Australian healthcare organisations.
