Dr. iPhone?

Is the iPhone going to take a place within the medicine of the future?. Seems that way after the news given by Illumina this week. The CA-based biotechnology company that designs breakthrough tools for genetic analysis, announced that had not only chose the iPhone as their main communications tool due to its reliability and efficient mobile communications and applications but that their engineers had also started to develop a new and unique application for it that the Company might release into a massive market within the next few years.

The Illumina technicians haven’t only seen in the iPhone a great business device but they had also envisioned in it a new approach to personalized medicine. How? Throughout a new application, developed by the company’s engineers, the user will be able to carry along within their own phone their genomic information. This would allow the user to interact with the information and their personal doctors. 

Even though the Illumina developers had never before written an iPhone application they were able to came up with this new and fully functionally prototype in less than two weeks. Once done with this prototype the company will be able to present the users with an easy and understandable application within a consumer-oriented interface.

For Illumina this new application will be the beginning of the approach to a subject that not many has access to or understanding of it but will be now possible through iPhone. For the company the ongoing change in technology is the key for the increment in communications, sharing and data management.
