Computational methods to lower medicine and health costs? #29

Open CooperNederhood opened 5 years ago

CooperNederhood commented 5 years ago

As large scale computational methods become more widely implemented across all sciences, I was wondering how, if at all, you thought this could affect ultimate health-care costs.

For example, I feel like I am seeing lots of work on using deep learning/other data driven approaches to assist in hard science research and I am wondering if this can lead to downstream cost savings. And then there's things like using deep learning to guide diagnoses and things like that.
