Introducing data science and advanced analytics techniques into an NHS team can be daunting. Building on our previous SWAIH Insight talk Simon will offer a practical introduction to how you can progress from excel spreadsheets towards open coding, using NHS performance as a case study.

The talk will discuss what you need to create practical foundations for a team, explore key challenges, use cases and showcase successful pilot projects to create a blueprint for integrating data science into performance improvement initiatives.
