Connecting Systems: How Modelling and Integrated Data Drive Healthcare AI Innovation in Singapore
The Institute of Artificial Intelligence for Digital Health invites you to attend its monthly seminar series, featuring Associate Professor Sean Lam Shao Wei.
This session explores how systems modelling and integrated data platforms are driving healthcare AI innovation in Singapore. Drawing on health systems use cases; Dr. Sean will show how modelling complex operations and leveraging shared data have enabled data-driven improvements from the frontline to the system level. He will also introduce a tiered collaboration framework that matches problem complexity with solution approaches, empowering operational teams to manage simpler challenges while engaging modelling and AI experts for strategic transformation. Together, these examples illustrate how connecting systems enables sustainable and scalable healthcare impact.
