Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to submit your research to a Special Issue of MDPI Healthcare entitled “The Role of AI in Predictive and Prescriptive Healthcare”. Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the healthcare landscape, with applications impacting disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and personalized medicine. This burgeoning field holds immense promise for revolutionizing healthcare delivery and improving patient outcomes.
This Special Issue aims to showcase the latest advancements and explore the diverse applications of AI and data science in healthcare, medicine, and population health. We welcome submissions that align with the journal's focus on high-quality, impactful research relevant to healthcare professionals and researchers.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Machine learning in medical diagnosis and prediction;
- AI-powered medical image analysis (e.g., radiology, pathology);
- Natural language processing for clinical decision support;
- AI for personalized medicine and patient stratification;
- AI-driven wearables and remote patient monitoring;
- Challenges of AI in healthcare.
We encourage submissions of original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and short communications addressing these themes.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Matthew Chin Heng Chua
