讲座摘要
Biomedical informatics (BMI) is an interdisciplinary field emerged over the last few decades as a driving force behind many biological and health innovations. BMI builds upon traditional disciplines including computer science, biology/biomedicine, and statistics. It concerns the effective uses of biomedical data, information, and knowledge for scientific inquiry, problem solving, and decision making, to improve human health. In this talk, I will first give the general overview of the different sub-fields of BMI and highlight some past achievements. I will then exemplify some current research areas that heavily utilizes machine-learning and deep-learning methodologies to push forward biomedical and healthcare innovations. Lastly, I will elaborate future perspectives of BMI in improving global human health.
