  Machine Learning to Augment Cardio-Oncology Medical Practice Operations and Advance Medical Science

  Presented by: Jacob Krive, PhD, MBA, MS, CPHIMS, LSSGB
  Clinical Associate Professor, Department of Biomedical and Health Information Sciences
  University of Illinois Chicago

  Abstract: Advances in oncology help more patients survive and lead longer/better lives, but many survivors struggle with cardiovascular diseases during/post cancer therapies, caused by cardiotoxicity. A new medical subspecialty called cardio-oncology helps alleviate cardiotoxicity concerns, but it suffers from lack of consistency in referrals from oncologists to cardiologists, limited availability of standard guidelines, and absence of a dedicated analytical support. Machine learning can help identify and refer at-risk patients in reliable and equitable ways but may also pave new ways for scientific inquiry through insights derived from data. Dr. Krive will review these distinct pathways in applying ML to support cardio-oncology research and medical practice.
