University of Phoenix Precision Medicine Initiative Discussion

I’m working on a communications discussion question and need support to help me learn.

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the Precision Medicine Initiative Cohort Program – Building a Research Foundation for 21st Century MedicineLinks to an external site.,  Translational Biomedical Informatics in the Cloud: Present and FutureLinks to an external site., and Precision Medicine: The Future or Simply Politics?                            Download Precision Medicine: The Future or Simply Politics?               articles.

For this discussion, you will examine the goal of Precision Medicine  Initiative (PMI) to leverage advances in genomics, informatics, and  technology to improve communication and decision-making and treat  disease. In your initial post, compare and contrast the benefits and  risks of participating in the Precision Medicine Initiative Cohort  Program. Evaluate the risks associated with the potential of the  nefarious use of this level of information, and explain why you would or  would not be a participant in this initiative.
