Analyzing the code

As sensors and Internet-connected health gadgets proliferate, your biometric data will become more medically valuable and a lot more voluminous. But what will you do with all this information? Will you send it to your doctors? What will they do with it? ?? Medical researchers are now building analytic tools that can turn raw data into actionable intelligence. Some are conducting vast surveys of vital statistics; others are mining existing databases of medical treatments and outcomes. They???re looking for patterns, and they hope to find the best treatments for your specific case of your specific ailment. Tech giants such as Apple and Samsung are vying to be a part of this new medical-data industry, but arrayed against them are many doctors and an entrenched, highly bureaucratic system. It will take years for the necessary institutions to adapt or come into existence. Hopefully, in the end, the system that???s better at saving lives will win.
