SMART Platform and API for Clinical Genomic Apps Gil Alterovitz Director, Biomedical Cybernetics Laboratory Assistant Professor, Harvard Medical School
100 Most Influential People of the Millennium 1 Johann Gutenberg (mass media- movable type) 2 Isaac Newton (gravity) 3 Martin Luther (Protestant Reformation) 4 Charles Darwin (evolutionist writer) 5 William Shakespeare (Renaissance playwright) 6 Christopher Columbus (explorer) 7 Karl Marx (19th c. political writer) 8 Albert Einstein (physicist) 9 Nicolaus Copernicus (astronomy) 10 Galileo Galilei (astronomy)
Movable type • Allows for large populations to be able to absorb knowledge via books, newspapers, etc.
Vendor-specific apps: calendar, calculator, etc. Apps did not work with other systems and did not evolve much over time. No long-tail/custom applications- e.g. family history app Independent apps Developer and user community is engaged Long-tail apps available
Issues in Communicating Genetic Information • No simple standard API (Application Programming Interface) • Contents are essentially the same • Sequences (ATGC..) and genetic files • But, data are structured differently • Different approaches of authentication
SMART Provides a Solution • Substitutability Medical Applications Reuseable Technology • Simple design of API • Geared toward developers and users • Integration with clinical data
What is SMART? • Substitutable Medical Apps Reusable Technology • Accelerate medical application innovation and research • Develop medical app community • Remove developer roadblocks

Genomics Advisor: Detailed Pop-Up SMART Genomics Advisor App Integration 24Oct2012
Problem: High cost of chronic disease management and issues with long-term patient compliance in diabetes, especially in pediatric cases. Solution: Increase compliance by integrating toy bear from Sproutel with SMART EMR for physicians and to provide parent/child feedback. Details: Integrated bear with the Telecare glucose meter / pump technology to provide clinical data to SMART EMR* Provides kids with a “fun” way to measure glucose and take insulin. Provide live data for clinicians/patients to view. * Interactive bear avatar gives feedback to patients. * Engages patients to increases their likelihood to comply with their diabetes treatment. Example App: Dbear SMART EMR
DB EMRFirst program to integrate genomic, device, EMR/Personal Health Record information. First program to integrate patient, patient devices (e.g. bear/glucose meter), care giver, and physician data into a unified view to facilitate collaboration on patient care. First mobile app to integrate genomics/sequence information and clinical information.
Genomics Advisor • Another app using the SMART API • Gives analysis based on genetics
