The document discusses creating a framework for patient-clinician collaboration. It describes how patients are taking more active roles in their healthcare through crowdsourcing treatment options and participating in "citizen science" projects. However, the current model is still paternalistic, focusing on compliance and adherence rather than partnership. True participation requires listening to patients and engaging them as partners through shared decision making tools and access to their own health data. When clinicians form collaborative relationships with patients, it can drive improved health outcomes.
