Abstract

Precision medicine requires a deep understanding of complex biomedical and healthcare data, which is being generated at exponential rates and increasingly made available through public biobanks, electronic medical record systems and biomedical databases and knowledgebases. The complexity and sheer amount of data prohibit manual manipulation. Instead, the field depends on artificial intelligence approaches to parse, annotate, evaluate and interpret the data to enable applications to patient healthcare At the 2023 Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing (PSB) session entitled "Precision Medicine: Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve diagnostics and healthcare", we spotlight research that develops and applies computational methodologies to solve biomedical problems.
