Title: Learning Engines for Healthcare: Using Machine Learning to Transform Clinical Practice and Discovery
Abstract:
In this talk, I will discuss recent machine learning and AI theory, methods, algorithms and systems which we developed in our lab to understand the basis of health and disease, to catalyze clinical research, to support clinical decisions through individualized medicine, to inform clinical pathways, to better utilize resources & reduce costs and to inform public health.
To do this, we are creating what I call Learning Engines for Healthcare (LEH’s). An LEH is an integrated ecosystem that uses machine learning, AI and operations research to provide clinical insights and healthcare intelligence to all the stakeholders (patients, clinicians, hospitals, administrators). In contrast to an Electronic Health Record, which provides a static, passive, isolated display of information, an LEH provides dynamic, active, holistic & individualized display of information including alerts.
