The theme for the 31st NOFE conference will be “Transforming epidemiology with AI”.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are increasingly applied in epidemiological studies. AI offers opportunities to advance our understanding of complex patterns and causal inference but is also associated with some key challenges. How can AI and machine learning techniques be leveraged for better public health?
