So What? Tremors: 

So What? Tremors Simplification (Patient self-care) Automation & Robots Postmodern Medicine Globalization Defeat of chronic disease Longevity

Simplification (Patient self-care): 

Simplification (Patient self-care) Self-diagnosis Self-therapy

Automation & Robots: 

Automation & Robots Cyborgs exist Implantees Pacemakers Bionic arms DBS (1:14) BrainGate Etc. External devices Thought to speech (4:15) Exoskeleton coming Robots Rounding (ITH) Therapeutic (Paro) Logistic (Tug) Pharmacy (PhRED) Surgical (Da Vinci, Penelope) BrainGate™ Neural Interface System The BrainGate™ Neural Interface System is currently the subject of a pilot clinical trial being conducted under an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from the FDA. The system is designed to restore functionality for a limited, immobile group of severely motor-impaired individuals. It is expected that people using the BrainGate™ System will employ a personal computer as the gateway to a range of self-directed activities. These activities may extend beyond typical computer functions (e.g., communication) to include the control of objects in the environment such as a telephone, a television and lights.

Postmodern Medicine: 

Postmodern Medicine Regenerative Stem cells Gene therapy/RNAi Tissue engineering Bionic Mitochondrial Genetic Personalized (biomarker tests; pharmacogenomics) Digital Bioinformatics/Computational biology/Systems biology (e.g., Archimedes, Physiome, Cancer Genome) HIT (EMR/CPOE, Imaging/PACs, gene banks, . . . ) Telemedicine Telesurgery Medical education & CME Disease management Disease/Bioterror surveillance Home medical monitoring Personal biomonitoring Postmodern Surgery Radiological (e.g. HIFU) Nanobots Regenerative Medicine

Questions: 

Questions The Challenge Facilitate and promote the transition to postmodern medicine even as it accelerates, retaining the character traits of the responsible steward and employing the arts of the pre-modern physician-artisan in the absence of anything better but discarding them without hesitation in favor of validated science and tested technology What needs to change? Understand acceleration Recognize the tipping point from medicine as art to medicine as science Dynamically re-pack the doctor’s black bag with new armamentarium Make structure and content of medical education flexible and dynamic Emphasize bioinformatics and biostatistics Hire mathematicians, philosophers Use simulation, telemedicine, etc. technologies in education Focus on where medicine will be tomorrow, not where it was yesterday Become familiar with and use futures forecasting tools and resources
