5% of all global CVD-related deaths occur in Sub-Saharan Afirca. The global and public health concerns of the African region can be tackled by innovative data science tools and strategies for risk assessment, early detection, prevention, and management of CVD.

CVD risk is up to 3x higher in cancer patients, but traditional risk scores fail to account for cancer-specific factors. Nickolas Stabellini, MD, PhD helped us developed ML-driven, cancer-specific CVD risk scores that outperform conventional models. #CardioOnc #CancerCare #cardiosky
