Since a couple of years, the term Big Data describes technologies to extract knowledge from data. Applications of Big Data and their consequences are also increasingly discussed in the mass media. Because medicine is an empirical science, we discuss the meaning of Big Data and its potential for future medical research.
近年来,“大数据”一词描述了从数据中提取知识的技术。大众媒体也越来越多地讨论大数据的应用及其影响。由于医学是一门经验科学,我们将探讨大数据的意义及其对未来医学研究的潜力。
