About this Event

Precision medicine aims to personalize medical diagnostic and therapeutic options taking our DNA, behaviors, and environments into consideration. Our health is more social than medical and disparities in access to this level of care mirror other health inequalities. Precise Population Health is a health equity-based approach that seeks to narrow that gap.

Dr. Vigilance will discuss ways in which community health workers, clinical, and real-world data (e.g. education, housing, and employment) can be used, leveraging inclusive machine learning, secure data management, and verifiable service interactions to improve health outcomes for the most prevalent health conditions in populations with the greatest need.
