Award: 2020 Compassion and Technology Fellow

Themes:
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Digital health

AI tools have been developed to predict, in advance, which hospital patients may die or require intensive care. Amol is implementing and evaluating one of these tools, to understand whether the tool enhances compassionate care by enabling clinicians to treat patients earlier and improve communication with patients and caregivers.
