Improving triaging from primary care into secondary care using heterogeneous data-driven hybrid machine learning: A real-world case study of decision support system using blood test & GP referral letters - Bing Wang and Prof Weizi (Vicky) Li (University of Reading)

Bio: Dr Weizi (Vicky) Li is the PI of the Future Blood Testing Network, an Associate Professor of Informatics and Digital Health, Deputy Director in Informatics Research Centre, Henley Business School, University of Reading. She is an interdisciplinary researcher focusing on using informatics, data science, machine learning, and digital information systems to solve real-world healthcare challenges. She is the academic lead of a large collaborative project of Improving the Quality of Healthcare through an Integrated Clinical Pathway Management Approach and Cloud based Digital Data Integration Platform, which was awarded ESRC O2RB Excellence in Impact Award in 2018 for her research impact on healthcare quality improvement. She is the academic lead of machine learning based decision support system for outpatient management which has successfully been implemented in Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust and has received Research Engagement and Impact award in 2020. She has been PI on projects funded by ESRC, EPSRC, The Health Foundation, NHS and companies, working on data-driven decision support systems that use real-world data (under privacy preserving framework) from multiple sources including Electronic Patient Record in acute, community hospital and primary care settings, remote health monitoring and patient reported outcomes to develop novel technologies (including AI based methods) to support clinical and operational decision makings in patient pathway. Bing Wang is currently a PhD candidate in informatics and system science at the Informatics Research Center, Henley Business School, University of Reading. Bing’s research interests are Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning and Graph Machine Learning. Bing been working as a data scientist at Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust since December 2019 during his PhD.
