Clinical & Real-World Data: Is AI the Missing Link?

The world's first regulatory-approved artificial pancreas proves the powerful potential of machine learning, as it informs the algorithm regulating real-time insulin delivery as a function of the patient's blood sugar level. Where else can machine learning or artificial intelligence (AI) help to drive health care innovation? Dr. Joelle Pineau, Associate Professor at the School of Computer Science at McGill University, Co-Director of the Reasoning and Learning Lab, and member of the Centre for Intelligent Machines, explains how AI can improve the operational and scientific efficiency of clinical trials, advance personalized medicine and cancer research, and previews the Keynote Address, The AI Revolution: Perspectives on Health Care in the Information Age, that she will deliver at DIA's Canadian Annual Meeting 2016.
