AI Applications in Public Health and Epidemiology
Data-Driven Disease Surveillance, Outbreak Prediction & Population Health Intelligence
About This Course
This workshop introduces participants to the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence in Public Health and Epidemiology. It focuses on how AI-driven systems are revolutionizing disease surveillance, outbreak prediction, and population health monitoring. Through a structured learning approach, participants will explore how large-scale health data is used to generate actionable insights for improving global healthcare outcomes and public health decision-making.
Aim
This workshop aims to train participants in the application of artificial intelligence in public health and epidemiology, focusing on disease surveillance, outbreak prediction, health data analytics, and population-level decision-making systems.
Participants will gain conceptual and practical understanding of how AI is used to monitor disease spread, analyze epidemiological trends, support public health policy, and enable early outbreak detection using real-world datasets and accessible analytical tools.
