Ever though how maths can revolutionise medicine? Do you love maths and fancy a career using it at some point?
Rather than the standard career paths of engineering and aeronautics, how about a new branch of medicine – precision medicine?
What is precision medicine?
It’s a highly individualised form of medicine for diagnostics and treatment that uses the patient’s personal data, machine learning, and data analysis algorithms to predict and manage a range of medical conditions.
We can say goodbye to a one-size-fits-all approach to medicine in the near future as screening technologies like DNA sequencing and single-cell technologies give clinicians much more information about their patients than ever before.
Coupled with predictive data based on population data, health care systems are able to improve the quality of care for multidimensional diagnostics and treatment, reduce costs and deliver better healthcare outcomes.
But for this to happen, there needs to be new mathematical tools for characterisation of various factors such as disease progression, medical interventions and healthcare provision.
Cross-disciplinary initiatives such as the EPSRC Centre for Mathematics of Precision Healthcare at Imperial College London are leading the way in this new space. Its partnership with public health specialists and clinicians will help develop the next generation of methodologies for data integration and analysis.
This is key because it is data that will be the fuel for change in the way precision healthcare and global health care systems will work.
Who knew maths would play such an important role in global health care? Don’t fall behind in maths. Register for Matrix Math classes for 2021 now before spaces fill up.
