New Date: Frontiers of Biomedical Informatics and Analytics

NOTE: This lecture was originally to be held on September 7th, but was rescheduled due to the passing of James T. LaTourette, a dear friend and a member of LICN for many years.

-----------------------

Biomedical Informatics and Analytics is a relatively new area of R&D that makes use of promising future and contemporary technologies, e.g., Genome, Cloud Computing, Big Data, AI, etc. Healthcare providers, pharmaceutical companies, and many public and private sector organizations are interested in solutions that explore predicting impending diseases to avoid costly management costs after the onslaught of actual diseases, as in cancer. This lecture is about exploring the Biomed landscape and promising breakthrough ideas to improve the quality and reduce the cost of healthcare.
