On behalf of the MIT Institute for Medical Engineering and Science, Hacking Medicine and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, we would like to invite you to attend the Big Data in Critical Care: Workshop & Conference.
The event will bring together various disciplines - computer science, medicine, nursing, pharmacy, biostatistics, epidemiology, informatics, business, health policy, and the social sciences - from both academia and industry, with the goal of learning from routinely collected clinical data, as outlined in a recent discussion paper from the Institute of Medicine.
Workshop - January 3rd-5th
Participants will be divided into teams of data scientists and clinicians who will use the MIMIC database to work on pre-selected clinical questions or projects. Findings will be presented at the end of the workshop. The best presentation will be awarded a cash prize as well as the opportunity to present at the conference. We are also inviting teams from around the world to participate via WebEx.
Conference - January 7th
The purpose of this one day event is to bring together clinicians and data scientists to learn about and discuss the oppportunities and challenges facing meaningful, secondary use of critical care data.
Keynote speakers: Professor Jeffrey Drazen, editor-in-chief of New England Journal of Medicine, and Professor John Ioannidis
