Join the Data Science Club for lunch as we speak with Dr. David Lindeman, Director of the CITRIS Health Initiative, about the promises and pitfalls of data and technology in healthcare.

From population health, to predictive analytics, to engaging patients, to advancing tools for the healthcare workforce, data analytics and technology-enabled healthcare offer significant opportunities to improve quality and outcomes of care while reducing the ever growing costs of care. However, there are many common challenges to maximizing data analytics and innovative AI/machine learning techniques for those first entering the field as well as for the most experienced healthcare professionals. Examples from the CITRIS Health ecosystem of cutting edge start-ups, providers, payers, large health systems, and international collaborations will be discussed.

Lunch will be served.
