Virtual Half Day Event
Thank you for your interest in the HLS Unified Data Analytics Workshop in Chicago, your health and safety is of utmost importance to us. Due to the current COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation, Databricks has decided to move this from an in-person event to a web-based event. We will use Zoom for a virtual meeting environment - You will receive your link to join  after you register.


Every healthcare and life sciences organization wants to accelerate innovation by incorporating advanced analytics into their business. In fact, machine learning has become essential for use cases such as patient risk scoring, real-world evidence analytics, biomedical image analysis, genomics and more. However, most organizations struggle with preparing large clinical and biomedical datasets for analytics, managing the proliferation of ML frameworks, and moving models from development to production.

In this workshop, we’ll cover best practices for using powerful open source technologies to simplify and scale your ML efforts. We’ll discuss how to leverage Apache Spark™ and Delta Lake for data preparation as it unifies data at massive scale across various sources. You’ll also learn how to use popular ML frameworks (i.e. TensorFlow, XGBoost, Scikit-Learn, etc.) to train models for various healthcare and life sciences use cases. And finally, you can learn how to use MLflow to track experiment runs between multiple users within a reproducible environment, and manage the deployment of models to production.

Join this workshop to learn how a unified approach to data analytics can accelerate machine learning projects in the Healthcare and Life Sciences industry.
