Vinod Khosla shares thoughts on disrupting health care with data science

If we had stroke associations willing to talk and listen to intelligent people we might actually make some progress in solving all the problems in stroke. But this won't occur because the status quo is too f*cking important for our stroke associations to ever consider doing something innovative.
Stroke needs to be completely disrupted but the boards and presidents don't seem to even know how badly f*cked up stroke is.

On the topic of books and papers that have influenced his views, Khosla said:

    A lot of what I’ve been thinking about started with articles by Dr. John Ioannidis at Stanford School of Medicine. What he found through decades of meta-research is that half of what’s in medical studies is just plain wrong… His research is focused on why they are wrong and why all sorts of biases are introduced in medical studies and medical practice.
