Overview
The potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications and advancement in healthcare is vast - from AI chatbots for patients to early diagnosis and genome sequencing. However, the industry is facing the constraint of sharing data within local organisations and across borders to further advance AI research.
As part of the Data Dialogue series, we will delve into the healthcare vertical.
Ocean Protocol will be sharing a healthcare use case demo on their collaboration with ConnectedLife where there is a system in place to continuously and objectively monitor the motor symptoms of people living with Parkinson's, and for that data to be shared with healthcare professionals, who in turn can adjust and prescribe a treatment tailored to the individual.
After the presentation, join us in an in-depth discussion with our expert panel on data sharing in the industry and the challenges within.
