The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is developing an informatics community and supporting cloud-based platform to advance precision medicine.
Called precisionFDA, the platform will be crowd-sourced, meaning the informatics community working within precision medicine can test, pilot and validate new approaches, as well as cross-compare results, with other contributed reference material hosted on the platform.
The FDA already started developing the platform, and a beta release is scheduled for December 2015.
