We are each ‘individual’, so why should decisions made about us - such as the drugs and treatments we need - be based on common practices and 'Big Data' that compares our individuality to some statistical mean?
Bodylogical®, PwC’s scientifically-developed predictive engine, mechanistically simulates the human body and its functions. Currently focused on chronic lifestyle diseases, this engine mirrors the body’s own physiological systems—circulatory, respiratory, digestive, endocrine, renal, and more—to create a unique model of every unique life. This model is dynamic. If a drug or lifestyle intervention makes a change to one system or even multiple systems, Bodylogical® quickly computes the impact on overall health. On July 5, we invite Kei Kumar, Senior Manager at PwC, to share with us his thoughts on the future of a data-driven, personalized approach to health, and platforms, such as their own Bodylogical®, can be leveraged in the market. From practical commercial and R&D applications in the pharmaceutical industry, to insurance companies looking to improve customer engagement and underwriting, to health entities trying to understand, manage and improve the health of entire populations, the future of health needs to be both personal and data-driven. Kei Kumar, Senior Manager from PwC Health Industries Advisory, is the Japan lead for PwC’s Bodylogical™. Please see his bio here. John W.
