\nToday\u2019s medical practice lacks prevention, is slow and expensive, and often treats symptoms instead of root causes.
\nIn this visionary presentation, I will predict how medicine could look like in 2050, enabled by modern electronics.
\nBased on advanced prototypes of today, I will motivate why these visionary scenarios might become a reality.
\nAnd I will leave the audience behind with a massive amount of ethical questions.<\/p>\n
