-The Health Data Science Demos website is a repository of research projects being
-carried at UCL and UCLH. The information is aimed to the data science community,
-to learn how patient data is being used to help improve healthcare.
-
-Each project provides information about the analysis performed and technologies
-developed, the process followed to protect sensitive patient data, as well as
-access to the software code behind, and synthetic datasets to enable others to
+Learn about the many different
+research projects being carried out using patient data and how it is being
+used to help improve patient care. Each project provides information
+about the steps taken to protect sensitive patient data, as well as access
+to code written by the researchers and synthetic datasets to enable you to
 replicate their analyses.
-
-Some projects might still be in progress, while others are finalised.
-
-All analysts and research teams in our community are invited to publish their
-own projects, with as much details as they can, and giving access to any
-synthetic data or non-sensitive data that can be shared publicly and is required
-to understand their methodology.

-
-The platform was developed in collaboration between the teams at UCL/UCLH BRC
-CRIU and UCL ARC, with support from the CHIMERA Center.

-
-The CHIMERA (Collaborative Healthcare Innovation Through Mathematics,
-Engineering and AI) Centre examines anonymised data from 40,000 patients to
-develop a better understanding using mathematical modelling of how people’s
-physiology changes during ill health and recovery. This will in turn provide new
-ideas for how critically ill patients can best be cared for.
-
-CHIMERA’s partner hospitals, UCLH and Great Ormond Street Hospital, store data
-collected every few seconds from monitors for patients in intensive care, such
-as heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels and temperature. Only a brief
-snapshot of this data is used to inform decisions around patient care at the
-moment.
-
-Researchers at CHIMERA will analyse this complex array of data using tools from
-data science and machine learning, and then use this to develop new mathematical
-models of how our body is behaving during ill health and recovery, to improve
-care.

-
-The UCL/UCLH Biomedical Research Center (BRC) Clinical Research and Informatics
-Unit (CRIU) consists of a team of clinicians, researchers, software developers,
-business intelligence analysts and data scientists working together to develop a
-robust environment and infrastructure for the analysis of clinical data.
-
-The main goals are to:
-
- - Facilitate clinical decision making supported by electronic health records
- (EHR).
- - Optimise patient care and operational performance through data-driven
- innovation.
- - Foster excellence in research at UCLH, one of the world’s leading teaching
- hospitals.

-### UCL ARC
-
-https://www.ucl.ac.uk/arc/
-
-The Advanced Research Computing Centre (ARC) is UCL's research, innovation and
-service centre for the tools, practices and systems that enable computational
-science and digital scholarship.
-
-They are an innovative centre with both professional services and academic
-missions:
-
- - To provide advanced, reliable and secure digital research infrastructure to
- research groups in UCL and beyond.
- - To be a laboratory for research, teaching and innovation in compute, data and
- software intensive research methods.
