Abstract
Precision medicine is emerging as an integral component in delivering care in the health system leading to better diagnosis and optimizing the treatment of patients. This growth is due to the new technologies in the data science field that have led to the ability to model complex diseases. Precision medicine is based on genomics and omics facilities that provide information about molecular proteins and biomarkers that could lead to discoveries for the treatment of patients suffering from various diseases. However, the main problems related to precision medicine are the ability to analyze, interpret, and integrate data. Hence, there is a lack of smooth transition from conventional to precision medicine. Therefore, this work reviews the limitations and discusses the benefits of overcoming them if big data tools are utilized and merged with precision medicine. The results from this review indicate that most of the literature focuses on the challenges rather than providing flexible solutions to adapt big data to precision medicine. As a result, this paper adds to the literature by proposing potential technical, educational, and infrastructural solutions in big data for a better transition to precision medicine.
