About The Series
The CIVICA Data Science Seminar series is a unique multi-disciplinary series focused on applications and methodologies of data science for the social, political, and economic world.
Session 4 Spring 2023 Details
In light of the accelerating adoption of digital health technologies in various facets of the healthcare system, there are various untapped potential applications of real-world data (RWD) and real-world evidence (RWE) derived from these technologies in shaping decision-making processes. In this session of the CIVICA Data Science Seminar Series, Dr. Divya Srivastava, London School of Economics and Political Science, will introduce her team's research in scrutinizing the ongoing national initiatives and the forthcoming prospects for the systematic integration of RWD and RWE into decision-making processes in five countries: Estonia, Finland, Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom. In this endeavor, she will construct a framework aimed at facilitating the systematic utilization of RWD and RWE.
