Text
Workshop Description: Increasing amounts of high-throughput data sets are collected during the examination of patients, in particular imaging data and data from genome-wide screening techniques like next-generation sequencing (NGS) or proteomics. The analysis of these complex data sets identifies new challenges for biomedical informatics, medical bioinformatics, biostatistics, and systems medicine. Therefore, artificial intelligence approaches are being increasingly explored. During this workshop, the influence of big data and artificial intelligence in biomedical informatics will be discussed.
Audiences The workshop addresses a wide audience from the fields of bioinformatics, medical informatics, and systems biology to biostatistics as well as epidemiology. The workshop is supposed to give an overview of the field and specifically address the overlaps and interfaces between all the different research areas and scientific communities.
Methods: The demands, challenges, and potential solutions regarding big data and artificial intelligence (AI) and its influence on biomedical informatics will be presented in several talks, bridging the domains of biomedical informatics, medical bioinformatics, biostatistics, and systems medicine. Furthermore, a fruitful interdisciplinary discussion will be encouraged.
