Gradually Our Bodies Will Move On-Line
• Example—Israeli Video Pill– Battery– Light– Video Camera– Wireless Transmitter– Images Stored on Hip
• Next Step—Putting You On-Line!– Key Metabolic and Physical Variables– Model -- Dozens of Embedded Processors
Inside of our Vehicles– Why Do Airplanes Have “Black Boxes” and Our
Bodies Don’t?
• Post-Genomic Individualized Medicine– Combine Your Genetic Code with Your Body’s
Data Flow – Use Powerful AI Data Mining Techniques
