Healthcare and Life Sciences Workshop: Improve Drug Safety with NLP

Learn how to use real-world data and natural language processing to detect adverse drug events

Healthcare and life sciences manufacturers are required to monitor patient safety during new treatment protocols. This is a challenge given the complexity of the data that needs to be analyzed. In fact, less than 5% of adverse drug events (ADEs) get reported through official channels. Most are captured in other channels like doctors’ notes, conversations between clinicians and sales reps, and social media channels. Transforming this unstructured text data into insights that an organization can use to detect ADEs requires a modern, scalable analytics platform that can handle diverse health data.

Join this virtual workshop to learn how the Databricks Lakehouse Platform and John Snow Labs, the leader in healthcare NLP, enable you to analyze all your real-world text data to detect adverse events and improve the safety of new treatments.
