清華大學建立醫療大數據中心

Tsinghua University's Center for Statistical Science has set up a Medical Big Data Center to support the increasing demand for medical big data research and to follow the call for developing big data by the State Council in China.

醫療大數據研究的需求不斷增加，同時爲了響應中國國務院發展大數據的號召，清華大學統計學研究中心建立了醫療大數據中心。

Analysis Group, one of the largest economic consulting firms headquartered in Boston, will also join the center as a strategic partner to develop the Medical Big Data Center.

總部在波士頓的安諾析思國際諮詢公司是最大的經濟諮詢公司之一，該公司也將加入醫療大數據中心，並作爲戰略合作伙伴推動其發展。

According to Liu Jun, director of the Center for Statistical Science of Tsinghua University, who is also professor of statistics at Harvard University, the center's research will focus on medical big data methodology development and applications.

清華大學統計學研究中心主任、哈佛大學統計學教授劉軍表示，該中心將重點研究醫療大數據方法的開發與應用。

"The center will also provide research to support clinical decision making, health policies,hospital and healthcare system management, and innovation by the healthcare industry," he said.

劉軍稱：“醫療大數據中心還將就臨牀決策、衛生政策、醫院和衛生保健系統的管理、醫療保健行業創新等方面進行研究。”

"Meanwhile, the center will also focus on the development of talents who will lead medical bigdata research in academics, government and the healthcare industry."

“同時，研究中心會重點培養人才，他們將在學術、政府和衛生保健行業的大數據研究中發揮帶頭作用。”

The Medical Big Data Center will work together with the Institute for Data Sciences and MedicalSchool, while other institutes in Tsinghua will also invite researchers and experts from various academic and research organizations, including Peking University, the Chinese Academy ofSciences and Harvard University.

醫療大數據中心將與數據科學研究所和醫學院合作，同時清華大學的其他研究所也將邀請包括北京大學、中國科學院、哈佛大學在內的各種學術和研究機構的研究員和專家參與研究。

Clinical experts from major hospitals and medical institutions will also join to develop the medicalbig data research platform, said Liu.

劉軍表示，重點醫院和醫療機構的臨牀專家也將爲醫療大數據研究平臺的發展獻力。

Liu said the collaboration between Tsinghua University and Analysis Group presents a strong combination in scientific research and talent development.

他說，清華大學和安諾析思國際諮詢公司的合作反映了科學研究和人才培養的有力結合。

While Tsinghua has a world-class research team with a solid theoretical foundation supporting medical big data research, Analysis Group offers extensive experience in the global applications of medical big data research to support medical providers, payers, the health industry and government policy makers, he said.

清華大學世界一流的研究團隊具有堅實的理論基礎，這爲醫療大數據的研究提供了有力的支撐，安諾析思國際諮詢公司在醫療大數據研究的全球應用方面經驗豐富，這些應用爲醫療機構、納稅人、健康產業和政府決策者提供了幫助。

The research teams from Tsinghua and Analysis Group have already been collaborating closely over the years in fields of comparative effectiveness analysis, construction of medical big data, data mining, personalized medicine and Chinese natural language processing.

近年來，清華的研究團隊和安諾析思國際諮詢公司在比較效益分析、醫療大數據的構建，數據挖掘，個性化醫療和中國自然語言處理等領域一直保持着密切的合作。

The collaboration will help develop talent who will play an important role in medical big dataresearch, medical informatics and related industries in China, he said.

劉軍稱，這種合作將有助於培養中國醫療大數據研究、醫療信息和相關產業的領軍人才。
