Nick MaxfieldThe van der Schaar Lab’s tenth Revolutionizing Healthcare engagement session for clinicians took place virtually on September 29, 2021.
In this session, Mihaela van der Schaar and a panel of 4 international clinicians discussed the importance of bridging the gap between ideas and implementation in machine learning for healthcare.
Our panel for this session consisted of:
- Ari Ercole, MD PhD (Consultant in anesthesia & intensive care; deputy chief clinical informatics officer, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust)
- Eoin McKinney, MD PhD (University lecturer in renal medicine, University of Cambridge; Honorary consultant in nephrology and transplantation, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust)
- Lucas Fleuren (PhD candidate, Artificial Intelligence, Laboratory for Critical Care Computational Intelligence, Amsterdam UMC; Resident, Department of Intensive Care Medicine, Amsterdam UMC)
- Carsten Niemann, MD PhD (Associate professor and consultant, head of CLL Laboratory, Rigshospitalet; Chair of Nordic CLL Study Group)
In the first part of the session, Mihaela and the clinicians showed how machine learning can help clinicians estimate individualized treatment effects, using a working demonstrator to show real-world case studies from the ICU setting. The latter part of the session featured a clinician roundtable, during which the panelists discussed different approaches to ensuring that clinicians can make full use of machine learning models.
