Federated Learning Collaborative

What is federated learning?

About Us

We are a community of health data science and AI researchers who are facilitating:

  1. Research collaboration and study design
  2. Joint multi-center healthcare data science grants
  3. Development and validation of AI and machine learning healthcare algorithms
Importance of Collaboratives

A multi-center healthcare data collaborative that leverages federated learning offers several significant benefits, particularly when it focuses on research collaboration, joint grants, and the development and validation of AI and machine learning algorithms. These benefits include better data security, enhanced research collaboration, and more robust AI models.
