To kde žijete ovplyvňuje vaše zdravie rovnako ako diéta a vaše gény, ale nie je to v žiadnych vašich zdravotných záznamoch. V TEDMED, Bill Dovenhall ukazuje ako je možné vládou prehliadané geo-dáta (od percenta miestnych infarktov k informáciám o počte toxických skládok) spojiť s mobilnými GPS aplikáciami poskytujúc tak doktorom dodatočné informácie. Nazvime to "geo-medicína".

Bill Davenhall: Vaše zdravie závisí na tom kde žijete.

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.
