SUMMARY:The Economic Evaluation of Precision Medicine in Diabetes: Models and Approaches
DESCRIPTION:Virtual or In-Person at Vancouver General Hospital Research Pavilion\, 700-828 West 10th Avenue\, Vancouver\, B.C.\n\n\nJoin C2E2 for a spotlight session on evaluations of precision medicine with Dr. Talitha Feenstra. \nStandard economic evaluations\, including cost-effectiveness and cost-utility studies\, present outcomes at the population level. Novel precision medicine strategies may ask for tailored approaches that use existing simulation models in a novel way\, or even require adjustment of these simulation models. In this talk\, different examples of evaluations of precision medicine in diabetes will be presented and discussed to gain insight into the possibilities and pitfalls of evaluating precision medicine interventions. \nRegister to attend

SUMMARY:Cafe Scientifique: Reinventing Cardiac Care - An AI-Empowered Paradigm
DESCRIPTION:Data is increasingly shaping our healthcare landscape. From electronic health records to wearable devices\, huge amounts of data are generated every hour\, offering insights into individual and community health trends\, treatment efficacy\, and resource allocation. Analyzing these data can allow healthcare providers to personalize treatments\, predict health outcomes\, and streamline operations for better patient care. However\, realizing this potential will require access to large amounts of personal health information and advanced computational capabilities. \nWith our clinical and research partners\, we are developing artificial intelligence algorithms that can analyze patient heart ultrasounds\, or echocardiograms\, and detect the presence of heart diseases in real time. The goal of this AI-guided tool is to support primary care so that patients have faster access to the echocardiograms they need to receive tailored healthcare in their own communities. \nWe extend our warm invitation to all families\, healthcare providers\, and knowledge keepers from BC’s communities to join us at our public engagement event and share your perspectives\, preferences\, concerns\, and questions related to the development and deployment of AI tools for healthcare. These conversations will guide the practical applications of AI research and how best to implement these advances for the benefit of you\, your family\, and your community alike. \n  \nLearn more! \n
