Abstract: Biomedical research has been transformed by recent developments in big data technologies. For instance, the collection of health records in linked electronic databases provide information on demographics, health events, medications, and lifestyle factors for large samples of patients. Similarly, portable devices such as mobile phones provide the opportunity to recruit large numbers of participants, and to collect real-time and geo-located individual-level measurements. While these resources o er the possibility to answer research questions that could not be feasibly addressed using traditional studies, they require innovative analytical approaches.
