Westborough IT services company Virtusa Corp. has partnered with The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Cardinal Health, and Amazon Web Services to use artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques to advance medical research.
Virtusa and Cardinal Health will simulate a dataset made up of electronic health records representing more than 30,000 patients. Using machine learning and AI, researchers hope to uncover hidden trends to lead to new treatment strategies and cures for a range of illnesses.
The collaboration is led by Hulin Wu, a faculty member for Texas Health Science Center at Houston. The research will focus initially on finding the best treatment and management strategies for subarachnoid hemorrhage and diabetes based on healthcare data and computer simulations.
For the project, more than 20 faculty and students in the Department of Biostatistics and Data Science at UTHealth School of Public Health will team with clinicians, epidemiologists, informaticians, and computer scientists.
