You'll discover how graph technologies help you connect disparate data sources so you can solve healthcare's most challenging problems using advanced analytics.
You'll learn: Different types of healthcare data: electronic health records, clinical registries and trials, digital health tools, and claims data The challenges of working with healthcare data, especially when trying to aggregate data from multiple sources Current options for extracting structured data from clinical text How to make trade-offs when using tools and frameworks for normalizing structured healthcare data How to harmonize healthcare data using terminologies, ontologies, and mappings and crosswalks
