Episode 2: Practical Solutions to Health Data Poverty

In this episode, we continue our exploration of health data poverty, showcasing a team that's making a real difference based on the issues discussed in Part 1 with Dr. Xiao Liu.

We're thrilled to have spoken with Prof. Alexandre Filho, a Professor of Machine Learning in Sao Paulo, Brazil. He shared insights on how his team has been maximizing the impact of data-driven technology in Brazil. Prof. Filho's remark, "The world is becoming more like Brazil," sets the stage for a discussion on what the global community can learn from Brazil's approach to data diversity, especially in serving underserved communities.

Key Topics:

  • Global Lessons from Local Successes: How Brazil's high-quality, diverse data sets serve as a model for the world.
  • Overcoming Data Challenges: Tackling issues with data availability and the performance limitations of algorithms developed in affluent settings when deployed in rural areas.
  • Leveraging Local Data: Details on the team's work, including a paper on neonatal mortality prediction using routinely collected data.
  • Direct Benefits to Data Providers: Ensuring that those from whom data is collected see benefits from its use.
  • Balancing Impact and Scalability: The trade-offs between highly tuned, local solutions and the need for scalable models that perform well across broader contexts.
  • Benchmarking for Better Health: Extended efforts in the ITU/WHO focus group on AI for health, evaluating the performance of models across different LMIC settings.
  • Advancing Local Impact: The use of transfer learning to enhance model performance and impact locally.
  • Prof. Filho’s Recommendations: Key advice for innovators and implementers in the EU, US, and UK.
