Abstract

Though there has been a large influx of rich biomedical data in recent years, what data is useful for our uses cases and how we integrate different data types into a cohesive prediction model is still an open area of research and includes a lot of trial and error. In this talk Dr. Ross will discuss her research in progress regarding efforts to integrate genetic, clinical, and imaging data for vascular disease risk prediction.
