Digital Transformation in Personalized Medicine with Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Medical Things

Abstract

Digital transformation is impacting every facet of science and society, not least because there is a growing need for digital services and products with the COVID-19 pandemic. But the need for digital transformation in diagnostics and personalized medicine field cuts deeper. In the past, personalized/precision medicine initiatives have been unable to capture the patients' experiences and clinical outcomes in real-time and in real-world settings. The availability of wearable smart sensors, wireless connectivity, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Medical Things is changing the personalized/precision medicine research and implementation landscape. Digital transformation in poised to accelerate personalized/precision medicine and systems science in multiple fronts such as deep real-time phenotyping with patient-reported outcomes, high-throughput association studies between omics and highly granular phenotypic variation, digital clinical trials, among others. The present expert review offers an analysis of these systems science frontiers with a view to future applications at the intersection of digital health and personalized medicine, or put in other words, signaling the rise of "digital personalized medicine."
