Abstract Although personalized medicine appears to be
a truism, medical doctors are still generally trained in an
old-fashioned manner with a focus on reactive treatment.
The aim of this paper is to emphasize the evolution of life
sciences into a more predictive science, where the development
of quantitative models is starting to take place.
Personalized medicine is a consequence of such paradigm
shift. To keep up with the change, the various actors within
the health system must be trained in a completely different
manner, focusing on the ability to work as part of a
multidisciplinary team that includes medical doctors, nurses,
engineers in medical imaging, and others who collect
information from patients. In addition, these teams should
include modelers that are able to integrate the flood of
data into predictive and quantitative models. The challenge
of implementing new training methods in line with
the shift is a major bottleneck to the emergence and success
of personalized medicine in our societies.
