Overview
Data Science Without Boarders (DSWB) project is envisaged as a proof of concept to demonstrate the power of co-designing strategies for application of advanced data science tool to improve data use and application/utilisation of machine learning or artificial intelligence- generated tools for patient management, prediction or routine care and other use cases as demonstrated in the partner mapping exercise. The project team recognizes the different data requirements and the value of co-designing project support that will be guided by the primary beneficiaries - the pathfinder institutions. The project aims to, firstly, too strengthen data systems in selected African health institutions at different stages of the advanced data science pipeline, secondly, to create a sustainable environment for the collaborative, replicable and transferable application of data science techniques in African health institutions, and thirdly, to develop a no-code platforms to support the application of machine learning models for the analysis of data by data scientists, health researchers and policy makers.
