Abstract

Traditional medical practice has been " reactive " (doctor takes part when

disease appears). The theoretical (scale free networks and complex systems),

technological (high efficiency " omic " technologies) and conceptual (biology

systems) advances throughout the last decade, allow us to anticipate the

transition to an " anticipatory " medicine, based on health (not on disease).

This review establishes the conceptual bases and discusses the principal

aspects of this new medicine, known as " P4 Medicine " standing for

personalized, predictive, preventive and participatory.Copyright © 2010 SEPAR.
