Future of Medical Research?


     Is the future of medical research going to look like facebook? In a new study, an online database/journal is used to record and track a disease. The participants keep a daily account and actively participate in the research. This huge amount of data is contained in a network they're calling N3, and they say it could change the face of clinical research. 

    Develeopers hope that someday this type of data gathering could be used concerning Heart disease, obesity and other related diseases. 
 
   In a world where we are constantly using social networking, this could be a revolutionary way of data gathering.
