SAMSI’s Advances in Precision and Personalized Medicine

I was pleased to be able to spend some time this week with the Statistical and Applied Mathematical Sciences Institute (SAMSI). If you are not familiar with SAMSI, it is a partnership of Duke UniversityNorth Carolina State University (NCSU), and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) focused on statistical and mathematical sciences. They held a great conference this week on Advanced in Precision and Personalized Medicine, and I was fortunate to be able to share some of the progress we’ve made at UNC Health Care in unlocking opportunities in data sciences and analytics. It was impressive to see so many people convened together on this topic. I wasn’t able to stay long, but did get the opportunity to see Glen Colopy’s presentation on monitoring for clinical deterioration, which was excellent. The organizations were nice enough to post my slides which I’ve included below if you’d like to review our discussion.
