Daniel Kraft: Medicine's future? There's an app for that

Daniel Kraft shares about the future of medicine, with the newest, up to date trend. 

1. More resources spent on preventing instead of curing diseases. 

2. More information to make treatment personalized (personal dosage), such as geographic, nutrition, genetics. 

3. Kinect like cheap device will help examine the patient shape. 

IDEA:  Develop Kinect base game/application for physical rehabilitation. 

Prediction: I felt that the future technology will produce more and more data points, which might be possible to be processed on the client site. Medical device will need to be combined with cloud system. 

He also mentioned singularity university, an academy founded by cisco, google... They seems to have interesting video on the website. And cool event, such as "FutureMed 2011", too.
