Applied Analytics
We use applied analytics for health data research and innovation to directly improve the NHS and help save lives. Our Applied Analytivs scientific priority aims to match expert knowledge of new analytical tools such as machine learning and artificial intelligence with large-scale health datasets to demonstrate the power of these approaches to inform health and care delivery.
Our challenge
Innovators often find it unnecessarily difficult to access health data, whereas the people who are accessing the data, often don’t have the skills or support to innovate.
In cases where this disconnect has been fixed, the arrangements don’t always stream the benefits back into the NHS as much as they should.
Our approach
We match knowledge of analytical tools such as machine learning and artificial intelligence with large-scale health datasets to show their potential to inform health and care delivery.
We help the right people gain access to the data they need, in a way that protects the data, maintains patient anonymity, and allows innovation.
