TEDTalks. John Wilbanks - Let's Pool Our Medical Data
Description
When you're getting medical treatment, or taking part in medical testing, privacy is important; strict laws limit what researchers can see and know about you. But what if your medical data could be used - anonymously - by anyone seeking to test a hypothesis? In this TEDTalk, data commons advocate John Wilbanks questions whether the desire to protect our privacy is slowing research, and if opening up medical data could lead to a wave of health care innovation.
