Synopsis
The MDs still have the remedies, but self-monitoring through medical apps is putting each of us in sync with our own bodies. And our own bodies can now guide doctors to curing what ails us, thanks to diagnostic genetic profiling, and to fixing us before we can get sick, with tools like CRISPR. Our panel discusses redefining health, medicine, and longevity, treatment vs. prevention, how we use our genetic profiles for future healthcare and treatments, and what the science of vaccine and disease prevention may look like in the future.
