????Cloudera公司首席科學家，西奈山醫院基因與基因組學助理教授漢默巴切

????身為西奈山醫院（Mount Sinai Hospital）基因與基因組學的助理教授，杰夫?漢默巴切雖然沒有這個專業的博士學位，但豐富的經驗讓他絕對稱職。他曾是Facebook最優秀的數據學家之一，后來他放棄了被廣告滲透到各個角落的社交媒體業，成了Cloudera公司的首席科學家。Cloudera是一家基于Apache Hadoop平臺的企業軟件供應商。現在漢默巴切又與西奈山醫院的基因與基因組學負責人埃里克?沙特合作，試圖把大數據分析帶入到醫療保健領域。沙特指出：“他正在定義一個新的領域，以后這個領域將成為一門會發放博士學位的學問。現在沒有任何一門學科在教授他所做的事。”漢默巴切正在構建管理和運算人體健康數據所需要的基礎架構，以建立更好的醫學預測模型。沙特表示：“對于醫療業和醫療機構來說，現在正是他們開始啟用大數據分析引擎的時機。我們和杰夫這樣的人才合作，充分說明了醫學將來的走向。”——Robert Hackett

????Jeff Hammerbacher, Chief Scientist, Cloudera; Assistant Professor of Genetics and Genomic Sciences, Mt. Sinai Hospital

????Jeff Hammerbacher didn't need a Ph.D to land an assistant professorship in genetics and genomic sciences at Mount Sinai Hospital, but he had plenty of experience to justify the academic appointment. One of Facebook’s first data scientists, Hammerbacher ditched the ad-soaked world of social networking to become the chief scientist at Cloudera, the Apache Hadoop-based enterprise software powerhouse. Now he’s working with Eric Schadt, Mount Sinai's chair of genetics and genomic sciences, to bring big data analytics to bear on healthcare. “He’s defining a field they’ll give Ph.Ds in,” Schadt says. “There were no programs to train him in what he did.” Hammerbacher is working to construct the right infrastructure to manage and compute health data to create better predictive models in medicine. “Now is the right time for healthcare and medical centers to turn themselves into big data analytic engines,” Schadt says. “That we’re able to embrace a guy like Jeff just speaks volumes about where medicine is going to go in the future.” —Robert Hackett
