Patient-Centered Information Commons

Co-Investigator (PI: Isaac Kohane)

We propose to create a massively scalable toolkit to enable large, multi-center Patient-centered Informatic Commons (PIC) at loval, regional, and national scale, where the focus is the alignment of all available biomedical data per individual. Such a Commons is a prerequisite for conducting the large-N, Big Data, longitudinal studies essential for understanding causation in the Precision Medicine framework while simultaneously addressing key complexities of Patient Centric Outcome Research studies required under ACA (Affordable Care Act).
