Good morning! Thanks to those that responded to me offline and I'm sorry I have been so nebulous however I wanted to see what - anything - that would come back with such a broad, undefined question.
I work for the Innovation Center at the Mayo Clinic and also as a researcher on various clinical trials. I am very active in the prevention and prediction space i.e. how can we study the use of prevention and prediction tools and then develop better or entirely different tools that enable patients, providers and the larger community to understand risk and actively participate in their healthcare. We have a number of prototypes up and running in various areas, the most interesting in genomic testing and family history. I'd be interested in work that has been done in this area in the past - these do NOT have to be healthcare related necessarily. These could be risk/prediction models of any kind and any research or first-hand knowledge that has been successful or not in the past. Thanks again!
