At the Intersection of Biology and Technology
At the Intersection of Biology and Technology As big data increases its importance, the companies have started to explore the new ways to use it. Smart companies are gathering massive amounts of data and correlating it with other sources to produce new insights. This is where big data and big data analytics come in. Big data is growing into a catalyst for change on a global scale with, seemingly, limitless possibilities. The convergence of biotechnology and bioinformatics is providing a great advantage to the companies to gather and analyze data as well as what they can learn from that data. MC10 and Proteus are the companies which use both �wearable� technologies and digestible microchips to gather and analyze information about processes like brain activity and hydration levels that they intend to use for noble causes like lowering costs and increasing levels of care. Sano Intelligence also plans to use these wearable devices to �capture and transmit� blood chemistry...
