Saving life and learning from death with Python

Thank you to all 100+ attendees at our third Show & Tell of 2022. "Saving life and learning from death with Python". The talks are now available on our community YouTube channel.

AI Deployment Engine (AIDE): a new hospital operating system.

• Speaker:?Haris Shuaib. Head of Clinical Scientific Computing, Guy's & St. Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust
• Description:?An overview of the progress of the AI Deployment Engine (AIDE) — a world-leading program to enable AI at the point of care. Led by the London AI Centre, in partnership with 10 of the largest London National Health Service Trusts, the minimum viable product for AIDE is already live and progress is happening at speed. AIDE utilises a combination of Python and MONAI, a PyTorch-based framework for deep learning in healthcare imaging. Find the GitHub repository for this project?here.

Life and Death with Python: QI-Py by Clinicians

• Speakers:??Michael George. Clinical Fellow in Data Engineering. University Hospital Southampton (UHS)
• Speakers:??Matthew Stammers. Consultant Gastroenterologist/Data Scientist, University Hospital Southampton (UHS)
• Description:?Clinicians often feel stumped when trying to cross the divide between programming and deploying those innovations in real-world clinical settings. Questions such as: How do I connect my python script to the hospital database? How do I navigate the IG barriers? and How do deploy the outputs to affect clinical practice and get stakeholders interested? We hope to inspire you to break through these barriers.

Future Events

We want to keep the success of our Show & Tells going, so the NHS Python Community is looking for future speakers to share their innovative applications of open-source tools within the NHS. Please use the following link to register to present your application of open-source technology?HERE.

1. You are free to present the information as you wish - it could be a lessons learned piece, project/technique walkthroughs, a personal case study of your story working on an open-source technology project - just think about what is most valuable for the community members to take away from your project.
2. You can be any band or grade to present, we care more about the quality of work rather than the job title of who produced it.
3. There is no set structure to the talks, and either a PowerPoint, code or both can be shown. However, if code will be shown we ask that a short PowerPoint highlighting the overall goal of the project, the techniques used, and its result/application be included at the start of the talk.

We are excited to learn more about the fantastic work involving open-source technologies throughout the NHS! Feel free to message our event manager [Mattia Ficarelli] directly or find us on slack, if you have any further questions.
