Artificial Intelligence (AI) can improve health by empowering a community to collaboratively generate the evidence that promotes better health decisions and better care. Observational Health Data Sciences and Informatics (OHDSI) is multi-stakeholder, interdisciplinary, international collaborative with a coordinating center at Columbia University. With over 3000 researchers from 80 countries and health records on 928 million unique patients, OHDSI carries out federated studies at sufficient scale to answer questions about diagnosis and treatment.

This AI for Health Discovery presents current work addressing the bias inherent in medical literature by carrying out research at large scale, automating the analysis, correcting for confounding, and calibrating on residual confounding. Learn how OHDSI has produced evidence to inform hypertension treatment, COVID-19 therapy, and COVID-19 vaccine safety.

What is AI for Good?
We have less than 10 years to solve the UN SDGs and AI holds great promise to advance many of the sustainable development goals and targets.
More than a Summit, more than a movement, AI for Good is presented as a year round digital platform where AI innovators and problem owners learn, build and connect to help identify practical AI solutions to advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
AI for Good is organized by ITU in partnership with 40 UN Sister Agencies and co-convened with Switzerland.
