GenAI literacy series: "High Resolution" Electronic Health Record Studies Enabled by LLM

We would like to present to you the latest addition to the video series on Generative AI (GenAI) literacy, “High Resolution” Electronic Health Record (EHR) Studies Enabled by LLM.

Electronic Health Record (EHR) has been extensively used in clinical big data research as it allows us to derive numerous informative clinical insights.  However, the efficacy of EHR is occasionally limited by its “low resolution” data, which render the information inaccurate or incomplete.

This video demonstrates how large language models (LLM) can be used to convert unstructured data, such as clinical notes and reports to structured format, thereby improving the “resolution” of EHR studies.  It also touches upon the challenges to be tackled to further improve the overall user experience.  If you are interested in knowing what can be achieved using LLM in clinical research and the way forward, check it out:

Please enjoy and stay tuned for more videos coming soon.
