Personalized Health promises to leverage modern technology to revolutionize the way we approach disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. However, the implementation of tools and approaches to fully unlock the benefits of Personalized Health brings numerous challenges that society must address before it can become a reality. This session will provide two key perspectives on which and how new targeted health solutions can contribute to a cost-effective and sustainable health care system and accessing the right therapy for the right patient with the fewest barriers.
