I have created an extensive powerpoint presentation around the idea of genomics and precision medicine.
It aims to explain genomics in a cursory sense and then explain how we can use big data to improve healthcare with integration of genetic information. This new approach to healthcare is being called "precision medicine" and essentially means that the treatment will be specific to each patient based on their genetic makeup rather than just a generic treatment for each disease. Big data will allow systems to analyze what treatments work best for patients of similar genetic makeup and recommend the best treatment plan for new patients.
Genomics Presentation
This is a work in progress but I will be updating the linked presentation as I make edits to it.
