O'Reilly offers Strata Rx

O'Reilly Media has a new conference, Strata Rx, that will be of interest to people who want to bring data science to the healthcare world.

The folks at O'Reilly note:

Big data holds great promise for the advancement of personalized and predictive medicine. Used wisely, it can lead to significant cost savings, and even point to entirely new products and markets. If the conference  tagline, "Leverage the Power of Big Data in Healthcare," gets you excited, you'll want to join them in San Francisco on October 16-17.

The company has offered a 25% discount to readers of this blog. To claim it, use my name as a discount code (PAUL) when reserving your seat. Early registration expires today, September 20, and the price goes up thereafter.  Click here.

Dear Mr. Levy,

I have been following your blog for a few months now, and am really captivated by your commentary on the business and process aspects of health care.

I was wondering if you could write a blog post about the tension between UCF an Florida Hospital.
More specifically, why would Florida Hospital be concerned about UCF wanting to start their own teaching hospital? Also, how do UCF-sponsored GME programs at Osceola Regional create competition between UCF and Florida Hospital?



Public e-mails from both leaderships:

Thank you for your consideration!
