Gdje živite: To utiče na vaše zdravlje u istoj mjeri koliko dijete i geni, ali taj podatak ne ulazi u vaše medicinske nalaze. U TEDMED-u, Bil Davenhal pokazuje kako se nedovoljno prostudirani geo-podaci vlade (od omjera lokalnih srčanih udara do informacija o mjestima istovara toksičnih otpada) mogu povezati sa mobilnim GPS aplikacijam u svrhu boljeg informisanja samih doktora. Zovite to ''geo-medicina''.

Bil Davenhal: Vaše zdravlje zavisi od vašeg mjesta življenja.

A person’s environment shapes health just as powerfully as genetics or lifestyle, yet few doctors ever ask about place history. After surviving a heart attack, the speaker reflected on decades spent inhaling pollutants in multiple cities but found that environmental risks never appeared in his medical records. Billions are spent collecting geographic health data, but this information rarely reaches the exam room. Harnessing location data and adding it to health records could help people and doctors make smarter, safer choices.
