Through massive strands of data, Dr. Yulin Hswen trains AI to listen for the answers to very human health concerns: What do these symptoms mean? Where will I receive good care? Am I at risk for a chronic disease?
COLLEGE PARK, Md. — The University of Maryland will lead an eight-country research consortium to develop an artificial intelligence-powered early warning system to help communities prepare for and respond to diarrheal disease risks – and potentially other conditions – worsened by extreme weather events.
Biostatistics plays a vital and growing role in the field of public health, providing the analytical foundation for understanding health trends and making evidence-based decisions. As the volume and complexity of health data increases, especially in this new age of artificial intelligence (AI), there is a critical need for biostatistical expertise.
Dr. Huang (Frederick) Lin knows firsthand how artificial intelligence (AI) can support advances in public health: he uses AI daily in his own research analyzing the trillions of microbes living in our guts, looking for those that contribute to major diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, HIV/AIDS, and various cancers.
Patients with severe mental illnesses (SMI), including schizophrenia spectrum disorder, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder, have a greater risk of Alzheimer’s dementia before age 70 due to accelerated brain aging.
