Join me, Dr Felix Beacher, In this episode, we'll delve into the crossroads of AI and health informatics, guided by our expert guest Professor Mark Braunstein, Professor Braunstein shares his expertise in the field of health informatics and reflects on his book “Health Informatics on FHIR: How HL7's New API is Transforming Healthcare”. We explore the role of health informatics in enabling information exchange and standardization in healthcare and address how the landscape is changing through the use of FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standards. With the implementation of these standards, healthcare data can be easily shared and analysed, enabling the development of more effective AI applications.
We discuss the challenges and opportunities that arise from using AI in health informatics, including issues of data privacy and security, ethical concerns, and the impact on healthcare professionals and patients. This is not an episode to miss, tune to 30 minutes of cutting-edge content!
