=====Clinical judgement=====
Clinical judgement is a central and longstanding issue in the philosophy of medicine which has generated significant interest over the past few decades. 

Chin-Yee and Upshur explore different approaches to clinical judgement articulated in the [[literature]], focusing in particular on [[data driven]], mathematical approaches which we contrast with narrative, virtue-based approaches to clinical reasoning. 

They discuss the tension between these different clinical epistemologies and further explore the implications of [[big data]] and [[machine learning]] for a philosophy of clinical judgement. 

They argue for a pluralistic, integrative approach, and demonstrate how narrative, virtue-based clinical reasoning will remain indispensable in an era of big data and predictive analytics
