While the COVID-19 pandemic rocked global healthcare, it may also have accelerated the industry's technological and medical advancements in recent years. This report section will take a closer look at some of those ongoing healthcare developments that Quantumrun Foresight is focusing on in 2023. 

For instance, advances in genetic research and micro and synthetic biology are providing new insights into disease causes and strategies for prevention and treatment. As a result, the focus of healthcare is shifting from reactive treatment of symptoms to proactive health management. Precision medicine—which uses genetic information to tailor treatment to individuals—is becoming increasingly prevalent, as are wearable technologies that modernize patient monitoring. These trends are poised to transform healthcare and improve patient outcomes, but they are not without a few ethical and practical challenges.
