"IN A REALM OF SWIRLING, INCOMPREHENSIBLE BIG BIOLOGICAL DATA—WHICH IS, PERHAPS, ANOTHER WAY OF THINKING ABOUT THE HUMAN BODY—THE OPPORTUNITY TO USE COMPUTER LEARNING TO BETTER ANTICIPATE WHICH DRUGS WILL WORK WELL (AND NOT SO WELL) IN ANY ONE PERSON IS ONE WE SHOULDN’T PASS UP." (CLIFTON LEAF - FORTUNE.COM)
PanAgora Pharma and Novartis collaborate for the 3rd Annual AI & Machine Learning in Clinical Trials Forum – a partnership that sets the bar for best-in-class content and networking for pharma clinical trials executives.

KEYNOTE PANEL: AI & ML to Support Clinical Trials – Where do we begin?

The internet of things, mHealth, wearable and sensor-enabled devices present an unprecedented opportunity for accelerated data collection. What does it mean for life sciences – are we prepared to handle the influx of data, and create valuable visibility to accelerate trials? Where should we start? What are the best current applications?
