In this talk\, Kristopher Hult discusses the economics of precision medicine and how its potential value compares to other forms of medical innovation. He also discusses who benefits from different types of innovations in precision medicine and how innovation incentives can reduce precision medicine’s effect on health disparities. \nThis event is part of The Precision Medicine: Ethics\, Politics\, and Culture Project\, cosponsored by the Precision Medicine & Society and the Center for the Study of Social Difference.
