UCB big pharma deals IBM and announces the completion of the initial phase of a project designed to harness the power of analytics to help healthcare providers deliver more highly personalized care to people living with epilepsy.
The pharma deals milestone marks the critical first step in the path towards eventually harnessing the transformative power of cognitive computing capabilities, such as IBM Watson, for epilepsy care.
The goal of the pharma deals are to deliver an interactive system that translates massive amounts of patient data and scientific literature into insights that healthcare providers can consult at the point of care to inform their treatment decisions.
Together, UCB, the big pharma company, and IBM scientists are working in pharma deals to create the healthcare industry's most comprehensive corpus of data on epilepsy.
Upon completion of this project, healthcare providers would be able to combine their own clinical patient assessment with the system's predictive analytics to determine the probability that specific approaches to care will be successful.
