-====== BIOMEDIN 215 DATA DRIVEN MEDICINE ======+====== BIOMEDIN 215: Data Science for Medicine (Aut 2023) ======
  
-The widespread adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) has created a new source of “big data”—namely, the record of routine clinical practice—as a by-product of care. This graduate class will teach you how to use EHR and other patient data for better healthcare.+The Autumn 2023 class will be offered in person.
  
-The course has 20 lectures. The first 8 lectures will review the primary sources of healthcare datatheir advantages and limitationsmethods to transform the raw data into an analysis substrateand the use of ontologies in data-mining.  The remaining lectures will review several problem areas and analysis methods used in that problem area ending with home work and assigned readings. In additionthere are 8 discussion sections that provide in depth explanation of the methods referred to in the lectures. For 2017the discussions will NOT be recorded and will be used to hone our skills in critical reading of recent publications related to the topics covered in class.+– 2023 Teaching team: Nigam ShahAlison CallahanBryan BunningMaggie WangBen ViggianoYixing Jiang
  
-The course will use real, de-identified, large size patient datasets for home work projects associated with the course. This course is also offered in a 2 credit version (BIOMEDIN 225) which meets at the same time but requires only one home workwhich uses public data.+This course is designed to prepare you to pose and answer meaningful clinical questions using routinely collected healthcare data. The practical skills you will learn in this class will be applicable to any task involving data manipulation and analysis. The course will use real, de-identified, large size patient datasets for home work projects associated with the course. To have the best learning experienceyou will need to be proficient in the R language.
  
-**Prerequisites:** CS 106A; familiarity with statistics and biology. \\ +Upon completing this course, you should be able to:
-**Highly recommended:** STATS 216. \\ +
-**Recommended:** one of CS 246, STATS 305, HRP 258 or CS 229.+
  
-====== Schedule and Syllabus ======+  - recognize categories of research questions and the study designs used to address them. 
 +  - describe common healthcare data sources and their relative advantages and limitations. 
 +  - extract and transform various kinds of clinical data to create analysis-ready datasets. 
 +  - design and execute an analysis of a clinical dataset to answer a research question.
