Fundamentals of Machine Learning for Healthcare
Discover the transformative potential of machine learning and artificial intelligence in healthcare. Gain essential competencies and knowledge to evaluate and utilize these technologies effectively. Explore concepts, principles, and best practices for designing and evaluating machine learning applications in healthcare. Enroll now!
Machine learning and artificial intelligence hold the potential to transform healthcare and open up a world of incredible promise. But we will never realize the potential of these technologies unless all stakeholders have basic competencies in both healthcare and machine learning concepts and principles.
This course will introduce the fundamental concepts and principles of machine learning as it applies to medicine and healthcare. We will explore machine learning approaches, medical use cases, metrics unique to healthcare, as well as best practices for designing, building, and evaluating machine learning applications in healthcare.
The course will empower those with non-engineering backgrounds in healthcare, health policy, pharmaceutical development, as well as data science with the knowledge to critically evaluate and use these technologies.
