About this Event
We are planning an in-person workshop on Wednesday 15th October 1-4pm in Manchester on the topic “Use of causal AI to support better guidelines for patients with multiple long-term conditions and polypharmacy”.
Decisions concerning treatment for patients are made based on disease-centric evidence and guidelines, originating in RCTs or simple analyses of observational data. In practice, decisions need to be made for patients with multiple long-term conditions (MLTC) and polypharmacy (taking multiple medications). The existing evidence is therefore not always sufficient. This workshop aims to initialise a community of practice that will address that gap by bringing together a community to tackle the key challenges of: 1) moving from a disease-centric to a person-centric approach to guidelines and treatment, and 2) using causal AI to extrapolate evidence from selected populations that are not a good match to the population of interest (e.g., exclusion of patients with MLTC from trials).
This will be a half-day event, in-person, on Wednesday 15th October 1-4pm in Manchester in based in the Pankhurst Building. It will bring together individuals from a range of backgrounds, including AI experts, patients, clinicians, and epidemiologists. We expect that outcomes of the event will include new collaborations, potential position paper(s), and plans for future funding applications.
We would very much value your input given your expertise in this area. As a result, we kindly ask that you take a few moments to RSVP here.
If you have any questions about this or require more information, please do let me know and I will pass on this onto the planning committee.
