Big Data: Biomedicine
Digital data is being collected all over the world very quickly and has increased in quantity faster than anyone expected. The organization and sharing of this data is crucial to the ongoing work of biomedical research and in many ways the future of medicine depends on it. Big Data: Biomedicine is collaboration with researchers at the Keck School to document their work to convey the magnitude of this issue. Produced in partnership with Shatterproof Films.
