This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Our healthcare systems are broken. Doctors are capable of treating diseases but they are missing where their core focus should be: the patients as human beings. Doctor and computer engineer Nasrin Hafezparast suggests we put people first and use big data to predict a better future.

Nasrin is the Co-founder and technology lead at Outcomes Based Healthcare (OBH), a London based organisation supporting health systems to deliver better outcomes for people.

Nasrin has qualified in Computer Science and Medicine, both at University College London, and went on to practice medicine as a doctor in London. Working within the healthcare system, Nasrin discovered there were opportunities to improve how we care for patients.

Being entrepreneurial at heart, she also started a couple of technology companies, giving rise to her passion to enable innovative technology solutions to face the challenges in healthcare. Nasrin believes in empowering people to understand their health through rapidly emerging big data and technology.

Today, she is driving the strategy to support a shift towards a more personalized, data driven healthcare system.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
