The American Heart Association will partner with Duke Clinical Research Institute and accelerate precision medicine research using big data and machine learning.
Precision medicine driven by machine learning offers the promise of tailored, individualized treatment, improved patient outcomes, and better overall population health.
However, the promise of precision medicine is often overshadowed by the data challenges that can accompany it. Many healthcare organizations that are excited by the prospect of precision medicine still struggle not only to access patient data, but also to generate the actionable insights necessary for individualized care.
The American Heart Association’s (AHA) Institute for Precision Cardiovascular Medicine is working to overcome these challenges and accelerate solutions for cardiovascular diseases.
