Information-Rich Environments for Population Health Research: Challenges and Opportunities
Lisa M. Lix, PhD P.Stat.
Abstract: Canada’s health information environment is expanding rapidly to integrate administrative data, electronic medical records, and clinical registries, and to incorporate methods and tools to mine these data. Despite extraordinary opportunities for research aimed at improving the health of populations, there are also significant barriers, including less-than-optimal data qualities, data siloes, and limited analytic training opportunities. As a consequence, the value of these data are not fully realized. This talk will highlight initiatives to improve data fitness for use, expand data collaborations and networks, and build capacity in machine learning and data visualization methods.
