Program: Mathematics, Statistics, and Innovation in Medical and Health Care
Dates: March 27 – June 2, 2023
Location: Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation (IMSI) on the campus of the University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois.
Description: The quantification of medical and health care has brought a revolution to our lives with strong and long-lasting social and economic positive impact. This quantification stems from an exemplary synergy among mathematics, statistics, data science, medicine, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) and has been prompting the creation of new interdisciplinary areas across the various fields. This long program aims at creating an interdisciplinary platform for knowledge exchange and debate among the various stakeholders: mathematicians, statisticians, physicians, economists, computer scientists, policy makers and researchers in decision science, data science, ML, AI, business, operations research, and engineering. The focus will be more on newer interdisciplinary themes like risk management, funding and R&D of biomedical innovation, health care system design, health care delivery, insurance coverage, personalized diagnostics and treatments, telemedicine, medical cyber-physical systems and others.
