Joel Selanikio: The surprising seeds of a big-data revolution in healthcare

Collecting global health data was an imperfect science: Workers tramped through villages to knock on doors and ask questions, wrote the answers on paper forms, then input the data -- and from this gappy information, countries would make huge decisions. Data geek Joel Selanikio talks through the sea change in collecting health data in the past decade -- starting with the Palm Pilot and Hotmail, and now moving into the cloud. (Filmed at TEDxAustin.) TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes (or less).

About 4 years old but still relevant. People don't seem to understand that health decisions are constrained always by limited resources and lack of will. The collection of good data, easily and accessible, is the kind of advocacy that can make changes in how those limited resources are allocated or even higher level policy changes.

This is such a broad video. "if my government is clearly not doing well and greed and corruption is apparent, people will speak up and a new government will arise". is it even understood how the government works? that is something that will not happen. sure, there will be small changes that might come forth, but new governments do not just come out of the air. but, just for discussion, lets say one would. there is greed and corruption, people speak up and poof, new government. who is to say that this new gov't wouldn't have the same issues? what if this new gov't is actually a dictatorship who is going to be the head, the first to speak our of the ones who support them? there us always much more deep seeded issues that would need to be taken care of if you wanted to fix the broken gov't. then stating that "I just want the right people to use all this data for the right purposes". one more thing, that is never going to happen. it is ridiculous to think that the data will be used for the right purposes. the world and the information is not safe prom the predators or the people looking to do malicious things with what they find. it is a new world, and it revolves around needing to be more careful. they will not change, so we need to change our actions instead.

Less talk, more action! Good presentation though. Very interesting stuff.
-
Of course digital is more efficient then paper, but this talk speaks about how this impacts developing countries in a big way.
-
Damn. Sometimes we actually should read the comments first. =-(
-
I wondering why not send one team to collect data and meanwhile other team enter data into the computer .
-
For example in google or in office you create forms for free without this limit of 500 entries that they have here or if you want to upgrade to PRO it costs only 10 000$... WTF?!

This was nothing more than advertising his product masked as world saving tool :X shame on this guy. Why you put such stuff on TED??

I am a civil engineer from germany. How can I help ? We use the net for structural design and training our engineers.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Government still sends out an army of people every 10 years to do a head count of the entire country. No wonder we are trillions of dollars in debt.

So should you waste millions of dollars bringing vaccines to people that have already been vaccinated? And how do you even know who should be vaccinated when you don't keep track of the number of people being born?

...always sellin' that chip

I made a website that collects data too, shows graphs and maps, and anyone can use it, along with 900 million other programs the same sort of thing, even in healthcare, all in the cloud (and, since you brought it up, let's stop calling it the cloud... it's the internet). What is new and groundbreaking here? I must have missed something.

for what collect data and waste time? go out there with the vaccines

The issue there is how do we define the "right" people and the "right" purposes. But in short it looks like you spelled out the problem right there.

Cancer cure: I don't charge anything, and I will help you. There are tens of thousands of people who claim to have cured their own cancer. Some, if not most, are telling the truth. You can do this. I cured my own medically incurable disease in 1993. I now volunteer for the CureDrive. I have seen a lot of people cure a lot of things, cancer among them. You don't have to PAY anything, but you do need to LEARN how. 813 672-3419
