Giới thiệu về Dữ liệu Lớn & Ra quyết định trong Y tế, Đơn giản và Dễ hiểu

WHY IS THIS COURSE IMPORTANT?

Medical errors are now the third leading cause of death in America. A system that can provide "Evidence Based" decision support to clinical staff in the diagnosis and treatment of patients has the potential of reducing many of these errors. It also has the potential of streamlining processes and improving patient experience. Big Data can provide the solid foundation for these clinical decision support systems. But the volume is enormous and it is increasing each day. This is complicated by the speed at which real time devices stream healthcare data. How do we link all of this data? How do we make sure that it is accurate? How do we manage it? How do we make it easily accessible? This course will begin to lay the foundation for addressing many of these issues.

WHAT IS YOUR TEACHING STYLE?

My teaching style is a very pragmatic one. I assume you know nothing about this topic and start with the foundation and build from there. Some of these concepts could be challenging, so I sprinkle in as many examples as I can, both non healthcare and healthcare, to assure full understanding of the topic. This is why I have appended "Plain and Simple" to all my courses.
