I think there is a lot to be gained by creating better systems for searching and synthesizing diverse pieces of biomedical knowledge. But indeed this is mostly a field of research, rather than something that could be directly marketed. Did you think about going (back) into academic research?

Absolutely, always wanted to finish my Epidemiology PhD. But eeh the pay is awful. Not that I /really/ care, but that's getting into personal details. Still, whatever I could come up with now would not be much different than what I would come up with during academic research. The machine in my head is working regardless.
