Data for action: the role of data science in public health surveillance
This webinar will discuss the challenges and opportunities of data science to shape the future of public health surveillance, and to enhance data quality, interpretability, and accessibility.
Globally, data science is revolutionizing public health surveillance, introducing the potential for a data-driven approach that makes use of advanced analytics, machine learning, and comprehensive data integration. Data science enables rapid analysis of diverse data sources, such as social media, healthcare records, and environmental data, facilitating early detection of potential disease outbreaks with the goal of improving the timeliness of interventions and optimized resource allocation.
While data science presents remarkable opportunities for advancing public health surveillance, it also brings challenges. The complexity and nature of advanced data science techniques may prevent non-experts from interpreting results accurately, emphasizing the need for clear communication. Additionally, the infrastructure and resource requirements for implementing robust data science solutions can be substantial, potentially limiting its adoption, particularly in resource-constrained regions.
