To create the twins, data nonprofit i2b2 transSMART will use Dell’s computing and data storage infrastructure to pull de-identified COVID-19 patient data, spanning hospital records to real-time data from health wearables. Digital twins allow the research team to conduct various kinds of testing in a virtual, simulated environment.
The digital twins will be shared with researchers from more than 200 hospitals and research centers worldwide, allowing them to conduct millions of different simulations to identify which treatments are best for COVID-19 long-haulers in a much shorter time frame than human trials would require.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
