Welcome to Health Informatics Research Lab (HIRL)

Our Mission

The majority of people are probably aware of the tremendous difficulties in providing fair, affordable healthcare to a population that is becoming more urbanized with time, in parallel ageing and gradually developing more chronic diseases. As consumer expectations of their healthcare providers rise, so do the prices of devices and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, the current public and private support for health care are getting more constrained due to climate change, social disturbance and migration.

Our mission is to employ new information technology and machine learning based solutions to keep up with the rising costs, enhance safety, increase equity of access and improve the general health and wellbeing of the community.

Our Vision

The vision of HIRL is to propose and develop cutting-edge Health Informatics based research and frameworks, primarily based on cutting-edge AI and computer vision research methodologies, along with other areas of computer science principles, that could effectively cater to our vision of addressing contemporary issues in healthcare and everyday wellness.
