Precision Driven Health

Precision Driven Health is a partnership between health IT companies, health providers, and universities, using data science research to optimise the health of each individual by combining and learning from all available data. Founded in 2016 by the University of Auckland, Waitemata DHB, and Orion Health, and now involving a wide variety of commercial and research institutions, the multi-million dollar partnership is investing in research that will produce better health outcomes and commercial opportunities for New Zealand. The research partnership addresses four key themes to enable precision health to become a reality: 1. Broaden the scope of precise, patient-centred healthcare by making new data sources available. 2. Utilise a variety of big data sources for predictive modelling in a healthcare setting. 3. Utilise disparate data sources, analyses, and technologies to enable more precise and timely healthcare 4. Leverage technology to empower patients to self-manage their health. More details are on our website at http://precisiondrivenhealth.com.
