Research that fails to translate into action, be that policy or patient interventions, carries little value. Translating massive data sets into actionable insights that lay persons, legislators or other decision makers who are not particularly fluent in the scientific area of interest carries high value and high importance.
Professor Nicoleta Serban and Pediatric Technology Center Chief Engineer Leanne West will unpack what it takes for researchers to put health analytics in action from massive sets to data to decisions made that improve population health. For example: where should new clinics of what type be placed to reduce reliance on emergency rooms?
