will introduce clinicians, healthcare executives and managers both
clinical and non-clinical, data and information professionals, health
and bio informaticians, health policy makers, and academics to the
exploding world of BIG DATA.
Big data is currently a hot topic in health care and biomedical research. We recognise that it is an evolving area and that the name, definition and contents could represent different things for different groups of people.
The vast array of systems collecting data across the healthcare industry, and the increasing number of monitors and sensors of different kinds, mean that the industry will be increasingly awash with huge volumes of data.
How will you, your peers and your organisations take advantage of the many present and coming opportunities afforded by these large volumes of data?
Big Data 2013 is the place to come and hear about how to ride the data wave and not get wiped-out!
