Data foundations: Unlocking AIs potential in healthcare

11:25 AM - 11:50 AM

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming healthcare, promising new heights of efficiency and innovation. Yet, for all its potential, the true power of AI across our industry can only be realized with the right groundwork in place. This presentation aims to demystify the prerequisites of AI readiness, focusing on the practical steps that need to be taken before these advanced tools can be effectively employed.

Tailored for medical writers and professionals within the healthcare industry, the session will break down the foundational requirements of data standardization, the creation of data dictionaries, and the crafting of ontologies in the context of Data Lakehouse. We'll explore why these steps are not just technical formalities but essential building blocks for leveraging AI’s capabilities.

Participants will learn about the significance of organizing and structuring data to meet the rigorous demands of the healthcare industry. The talk will simplify complex concepts and provide actionable insights into how to prepare and refine data systems to support AI integration. This preparation is critical for meeting regulatory standards and for the seamless adoption of AI into everyday processes.

By the end of this talk, attendees will have a clear understanding of the initial, crucial steps required for AI readiness. They will be equipped with knowledge to audit their current data practices and implement the necessary strategies to pave the way for AI's successful integration in their work, ensuring that when the time comes to apply AI, their data is primed and ready to go.
