Abstract

There are many challenges, not least health inequities, global warming, and a rush for growth and economic development. Personalized, precision, and preventative medicine, bringing the latest omics techniques—genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics—for individuals allied to personalized prescription and care should help health equity. Digital technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) can help in an understanding of disease processes and in drug development. A holistic approach to the relationship between technology and the environment and clarity about both the positive benefits and negative harms resulting from using digital tools is necessary. We need to focus on the complete human-environmental interface and not just on climate change and carbon. It will be a measure of collaborative civilization if digital technology, omics techniques, and education can be used to promote global equity. Education linking diversities and performance throughout the world will be crucial.
