Mortality is a quantification of death, often referring to deaths attributing to a specific cause such as a disease or illness. Epidemiological studies often report mortality rates which are calculated by dividing the number of deaths due to a disease by the total population.
In this talk, I will use examples from my research using big data analytics to define ideals of precision medicine and digital health across a variety of diseases. Specifically, I will i...
