Bogi Eliasen

[edit]

Bogi Eliasen was the initiator and Director of the first population genome project: FarGen [1] [2] [3], designed to collect population data and instigating precision medicine in the Faroe Islands, but he is now better known as a futurist.

In his current capacity as Director of Health at the Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies, Eliasen advocates for a methodology which embraces a holistic vision that strives to use technoly to forge a more equitable future in personalised and preventive healthcare.[3] [4][5][6] [7][8]

He advocates for Universal Healthcare being freely and readily available globally Eliasen was awarded the HIMSS Future 50 Global Award in recognition of his work with transforming healthcare, as he pushes an agenda of equity globally. [5] [9] [7]

His latest Nordic Health 2030 initiative, advocates for a transformative shift from the traditional sick-care model to an integrated approach that emphasises prevention-driven and data-driven strategies. [8]

Eliasen's ambitious goals, has been critizised for being too idealistic given the existing institutional rigidity within global healthcare systems and organisations. Critics contend that the radical shifts he proposes might face significant barriers to implementation. Eliasen contends that the need for a paradigm shift from sick-care to preventive care is evident as healthcare systems are oriented towards medicines and hospital care while expenditure on prevention is marginal.[10] [8] [11]

Eliasen's commitment to a preventive, data-driven healthcare model challenges the status quo and pushes the boundaries of what is currently perceived as pratically feasible.
