Clinician's Roundtable Barriers in Predictive Health
Jan 3, 2008

Host: Danny Petrasek, MD, PhD
Guest: Ken Brigham, MD
Predictive health is a new paradigm that defines the unique characteristics that predict disease risk for individuals and populations and uses new discoveries in biomedicine to emphasize health maintenance rather than treatment of disease. What are the greatest barriers and challenges in predcting health? Why aren't we able to predict health like we can predict in the science of physics? Join host Dr. Danny Petrasek talking with Director of the Emory/Georgia Tech Predictive Health Center, Dr. Ken Brigham.
