Pharmacist | Wholesale Pharmaceutical Distributor | Data Analyst in training | AI in healthcare
AI is an interesting concept. To put it simply, learning with Medics In Tech has truly been an eye opener these past few days. Learning concepts like Machine learning and it’s applications in healthcare truly blow my mind. From organizing patient data into the Electronic health records (EHR) to predicting and suggesting potential diagnosis and prognosis. And even in my field, identifying drug interactions and drug history. All these leading to better treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction while optimizing the use of resources. I am truly convinced that AI has a huge role to play in improving general outcomes in the healthcare sector. I look forward to learning more.
