Synopsis
LEARNING HEALTH SYSTEM WEBINARS
This exciting programme of engaging webinars is a unique opportunity for healthcare professionals - clinicians, health informaticists, managers, researchers and students - to learn about Learning Health Systems from world-renowned experts. The fact is that most healthcare systems struggle to learn from the wealth of data, research evidence and hard-won experience at their disposal. Yet over the last fifteen years healthcare systems, organisations and teams have begun shifting the dial, developing their ability to learn from the routine care they deliver and improve it as a result. Featuring both local and international speakers, our webinars shine a light on exemplars from around the globe, identifying core principles as well as essential building blocks. Grounded in practical experience, the sessions explore real world examples across different clinical settings. The series also looks to the future – the transformational impact of Learning Health Systems and how we can harness AI.
Webinar 1: LEARNING HEALTH SYSTEMS: GETTING UNDER THE BONNET
Our expert speakers look under the bonnet of the Performance to Data, Data to Knowledge, Knowledge to Performance learning cycles of Learning Health Systems. Framing the series, they provide a helpful framework for designing and evaluating Learning Health Systems, probe the vital role of computable knowledge, and consider How AI will play into the lifecycle.
