4 Groves, P., Kayyali, B., Knott, D. & Kuilen, S. V. (2013). The Big-Data Revolution in Healthcare. MicKinsey & Company Report. Healthcare Data Activity (Claims) and Cost Data Owner: Payers, Providers Example: Utilization of care, Cost estimates Pharmaceutical R&D Data Owner: Pharmaceutical Companies, Academia Example: Clinical Trials, High- Throughput-Screening Libraries Clinical Data Owner: Providers Example: Electronic Health Records, Medical Images There is approximately 500 petabytes of healthcare data in existence today and that number is expected to skyrocket to more than 25,000 petabytes within the next seven years. Patient Behavior and Sentiment Data Owner: Consumers and Stakeholders Example: Patient Behaviors and Preferences, Sensory Data

5 Resources Knowledge Data

6 Electronic Health Records An Electronic Health Record (EHR) is an evolving concept defined as a systematic collection of electronic health information about individual patients or populations Jensen, Peter B., Lars J. Jensen, and SØren Brunak. "Mining electronic health records: towards better research applications and clinical care." Nature Reviews Genetics (2012).

7 Medical Imaging X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

8 Physiology Physiology is the scientific study of function in living systems. A sub-discipline of biology, its focus is in how organisms, organ systems, organs, cells, and bio-molecules carry out the chemical or physical functions that exist in a living system

9 Drug: Chemical Compounds A chemical compound is a pure chemical substance consisting of two or more different chemical elements that can be separated into simpler substances by chemical reactions

10 Drug: Protein Targets The term biological target is frequently used in pharmaceutical research to describe the native protein in the body whose activity is modified by a drug resulting in a desirable therapeutic effect. In this context, the biological target is often referred to as a drug target.

11 Gene DNA: A long molecule that looks like a twisted ladder. It is made of four types of simple units and the sequence of these units carries information, just as the sequence of letters carries information on a page. Gene expression: The process in which the information encoded in a gene is converted into a form useful for the cell. The first step is transcription, which produces a messenger RNA molecule complementary to the DNA molecule on which a gene is encoded. For protein-coding genes, the second step is translation, in which the messenger RNA is read by the ribosome to produce a protein. Gene: A segment of DNA. Genes are like sentences made of the "letters" of the nucleotide alphabet, between them genes direct the physical development and behavior of an organism. Genes are like a recipe or instruction book, providing information that an organism needs so it can build or do something - like making an eye or a leg, or repairing a wound. A Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP, pronounced snip; plural snips) is a DNA sequence variation occurring commonly within a population (e.g. 1%) in which a single nucleotide A, T, C or G in the genome (or other shared sequence) differs between members of a biological species or paired chromosomes.
