This video is from our 2013 Health Horizons Map of the Decade, Reworking Health: New Authorities in a Well-being Economy, which is a guide to the new tools and resources that can

The translation of science into medicine will increasingly rely on technology tools that enable productive interplay between artificial intelligence and human imagination. As the sheer volume of data grows, machine learning will help researchers and health profession- als parse through the overabundance of information to connect diverse ideas and blend research concepts. Artificial intelligence will also aid in identifying connections between people and ideas, encouraging creativity and cross-domain expertise, and advance the creative search for new hypotheses.
