Overview: Our objective, in partnership with SAIC and National Cancer Institute, was to create a prototype of a solution that enables a rapid learning healthcare system through feedback loops across the patient, provider, and researcher. The objectives for this prototype are: collect cancer diagnostic and staging information, treatment plans, and patient outcomes; provide Web-based tools that enable consumers to record their personal information and share data; create a virtuous circle from clinical care through research and back to care; give researchers and physicians tools to query and analyze this aggregated data; and enable patients to tap into relevant cohorts of patients like them. |
