Abstract

Rapid increases in data availability and computing capacity are creating new opportunities for public health surveillance to guide effective action. In this presentation I will describe the Population Health Record (PopHR), which is a ‘Big Data’ platform that uses artificial intelligence to integrate data from multiples sources and present indicators to users in manner consistent with public health theory and tailored to public health practice. I will review progress in developing new indicators from digital food purchasing data and in enabling the combination of population health information and evidence to guide public health decisions. In close collaboration with our public health partners, we are in the process of implementing this platform in the province of Quebec and will soon be evaluating the uptake and use of the PopHR within public health departments.

Bio

Teaching

• Module Organiser: “Control of STI” since 1997.
• Regular teaching on the MSc Control of Infectious Diseases, the Diploma in Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, and the MSc in Reproductive and Sexual Health Research at LSHTM;
• External teaching ongoing at the Institute of Tropical Medicine (ITM), Antwerp, Belgium; Faculty of Medicine, University of Sao Paulo (FMUSP), Brazil; and in the past for various other national and international STI courses including: British Association of Sexual Health and HIV (BASHH), UK; School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), London, UK; University of Bordeaux and IMEA Fondation Leon M’Ba, Paris, France; Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden; University of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso; Wits Reproductive Health & HIV Insitute (Wits-RHI), Johannesburg, South Africa.

Research

• Main research interests are in the clinical management of sexually transmitted infectons (STI), the organisation of STI/HIV prevention and care services in various contexts, and the evaluation of interventions targeting the HIV-STI interactions, with a particular interest in genital herpes (HSV-2), human papillomavirus (HPV), and cervico-vaginal infections.
• I have participated, through a succession of DFID-funded research programmes on HIV/AIDS & STI, in research on various aspects of HIV/STI control in several anglophone and francophone African countries, in China and in Brazil.
• Coordinator of an EU/FP7 funded consortium (2010-2014) conducting research on the evaluation of cervical cancer prevention among HIV-infected women in Africa – the HPV in Africa Research Partnership (HARP) (http://harp-fp7.org/)
• LSHTM PI for the EU-funded ZIKAlliance Consortium (https://zikalliance.tghn.org/)
