Humanwide

Humanwide was a bold pilot project from Stanford Medicine that used the latest science and technology to understand each patient, from lifestyle to DNA, and apply that knowledge to transform their health. The embodiment of Precision Health, the Humanwide model combined cutting-edge tools of biomedicine with a data-driven, team-based approach to focus on what matters most to each patient. The goal: predict and prevent disease before it strikes.

Each person’s DNA contains a wealth of information about his or her health risks. In Stanford Medicine’s Humanwide pilot project, primary care teams used genetic screenings and other assessments to create a comprehensive portrait of each patient’s current and potential health concerns, with an eye toward predicting and preventing disease. Jayasree, a 39-year-old patient, sought testing to determine whether she carried a gene that would heighten her risk for breast and ovarian cancer.
