- In an effort to harness vast amounts of genomic data that can benefit human well-being, Stanford's School of Humanities and Sciences and School of Medicine have launched the Stanford Center for Computational, Evolutionary and Human Genomics.
Carlos Bustamante, Atul Butte, Euan Ashley, and Joachim Hallmayer discuss the challenges and possibilites in analyzing this "big data."

The opportunities to use technology in medicine are endless. It is exciting to watch the discussions. Healthcare has traditionally been, by far, the most paper intensive, non technology centric, non automated vertical across industries. Keep up the discussions, they are pushing us forward as an industry and as a nation.
The data that comes from laboratory analyses is not profiled, meaning it does say things like age, gender, ethnic composition, conditions, medical history, etc. but it doesn't show the person's name. It's anonymous, but it helps science.
Increase the intensity of innovation
When people object as I support implementation of big data, I wish society would embrace tech while deploring their wrongful use instead.
Yea so wich lobby will protect my data inside the Big Data from access I dont agree with?
But anyway, no computer system is secure. Storage is getting cheaper and cheaper. One leak will be enough to have all data of everyone up to the point of the leak.
Think if all the ap opportunities! Make foto of someone and read all of theire online communication up to the leak point. What a wonderful world it will be.
Yes it helps science and it helps historians of the future. But the data is thete to stay. Who has the control over it in 10 years from now? Or in 50? If it is genetic data, is it not likely at one point it will be possible to calculate probabilities of how I will look like? Cross reference with picture search 3.0 and there I am.
