Info Sessions
The M.S. in Health Informatics & Data Science (HIDS) at Georgetown University is designed to help students develop core competencies in data science, health-related data, predictive analytics, machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI) and other advanced technologies. Through the program, students will be prepared to successfully take on a wide range of opportunities in health care organizations and related industries including health technology developers, device manufacturers, pharma/biotech, academic medical centers and management consulting firms. We help our students build critical skills for this growing sector to lead the evolution of health care.
Are you interested in a career in Health Informatics & Data Science? Join us for our virtual information sessions to learn more about our STEM-based Masters program and the application process.

Read our latest paper in Nature Communications (new window) published in December 2022 regarding a large scale consortium effort to develop a federated learning approach for AI models based on brain cancer imaging. The segmented labels from our REMBRANDT MRI dataset are part of a world-wide federated platform Federated Tumor Segmentation (FeTS) https://www.fets.ai/ (new window) that allows training specific machine learning models by leveraging information gathered from brain cancer datasets residing in collaborating sites without ever exchanging the data. Such a world wide platform enables very large multi-site machine learning models in an effort to accelerate discovery. In this paper, we describe how this Federated Learning model enabled big data for Rare Cancer Boundary Detection. This work was published with our collaborators Sypiron Bakas, Sarthak Pati, Ujjwal Baid et al at UPenn. Read a short summary of the paper here (new window) .
