Many of us will experience more than one health condition during our lifetime. Conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer and mental health problems do not always occur in isolation.
Researchers are using population health data to better understand how these conditions are connected, why some people are more likely to develop additional health conditions, and how this knowledge could help improve prevention, treatment and care.
In our autumn edition of our Let’s Talk Health Data series, you’ll hear from Genevieve Cezard, Naomi Launders and Elias Allara, who will share what population health data is revealing about the links between different health conditions like mental health, cancer and diabetes.
This webinar is delivered in collaboration with HDR UK’s Big Data for Complex Disease Research Driver Programme.
In this session, you will:
- Learn how different health conditions can be connected
- Discover how scientists use health data to understand disease risk
- Explore research into mental health, heart disease, cancer and diabetes
- Find out how health data can help identify patterns across people’s health journeys
- Have the opportunity to ask questions directly to data scientists
About Let’s Talk Health Data webinars
Health data is powerful. From it, patterns can be drawn about the benefits of certain treatments, approaches to care and our chances of disease. Our new, seasonal Let’s Talk Health Data webinars for HDR UK Voices explore ways that people, from scientists to community groups, are using data, in different ways, to improve health and wellbeing. Each webinar includes a range of speakers giving short presentations about their work with health data, with time for audience Q&A at the end.
