Exploring the link between populomics and knowledge management: patient-oriented case exemplars.
The challenge of population-level health problems, such as healthcare disparities, encompasses socio-behavioural, community and biologic factors and advances in information and communication technologies (ICTs). These elements are reflected in the key ethos of contemporary knowledge management (KM), as knowledge emerges from the confluence of people, process and technology. This paper illustrates how knowledge-based health case studies can be used as effective exemplars to illuminate understanding and explore possible connections between populomics and KM.
