Big Data is used to create a better understanding of others behaviors, preferences, and choices. Big Data has always been around, and is especially important in the medical field. Big Data in the medical field adds to technology advances, and major discoveries that can help save lives of many. Moreover, diagnose, and treat patients in a timely mannered opportunity. It allows those working in the medical field to continue to advance, and create better and safer healthcare for everyone.
one source I have found is:
“The Future of Big Data, Machine Learning, and Clinical Medicine.” NEJM Catalyst, 10 Oct. 2016, catalyst.nejm.org/big-data-machine-learning-clinical-medicine/.
This source will help provide information on medical advances through technology, and why Big Data is important in healthcare and help give me a broader outlook on what Big data really means in the medical field.
A few other sources I found are:

- These articles will also help with supporting my thesis statement about Big data helping healthcare
- I still need to research more to start my final draft, and look for some possible naysayer sources to find some negative effects of Big Data in the medical field.
Hi, Caralyn,
You have identified a field (medical field) but you will want to narrow down to one of the two subtopics: either research or patient diagnosis and treatment. As you learn more about each, consider the current laws regarding patient data collection.
