Artificial intelligence for electronic health records
Thursday 10 July at 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Open to members of the University of Oxford only.
This talk by Dr. Shishir Rao explores how artificial intelligence (AI) on routinely collected electronic health records (EHR) data can transform healthcare research. The talk will focus on development and application of Transformer-based models for handling rich, multitype EHR, leveraging AI for prediction for early intervention, accelerating disease understanding, and conducting well-adjusted causal inference on large-scale EHR. Furthermore, the presentation will address critical challenges in the space of AI and healthcare: determining appropriate AI applications, ensuring trustworthiness, mitigating algorithmic bias, and validating clinical utility.
