Data, Health and Society:
Predicting and preventing disease
Lead: Prof Christopher Kipps
​
We are using data science to integrate multiple different data sources, enabling us to categorise, predict and prevent disease.

Health needs we are tackling
​
How can we use data science to integrate multiple data sources to predict, categorise and prevent disease?
​
-
Identifying action signals for intervention: we are integrating highly diverse data sets such as ‘omic, periconceptual, and imaging data linked to the wider environmental context.
​​
-
Artificial intelligence (AI) early warning system: we are using AI to combine profiles of observable characteristics of patients with real-time data to inform clinical decision making.
​​
-
Predicting individual risk: we are optimising comparative data to predict individual risk, for example by using data on dementia, cardiac rhythms, and patient e-pathway management.
