We're excited to invite you to an upcoming webinar featuring Dr. Yuriy Gusev, Director of the Health Informatics and Data Science (HIDS) program at Georgetown University.
Dr. Gusev will share insights from five years of collaboration with the Velsera/Seven Bridges team, highlighting how this partnership helped develop and implement a cutting-edge curriculum focused on:
Precision Health Data Science
Genomics
Image Analysis
Learn how the Seven Bridges platform has been integrated into Georgetown’s training approach to equip students with hands-on skills for real-world biomedical data challenges.
Whether you're an educator, researcher, or data science professional, this session will offer valuable takeaways on building effective, scalable training in the era of precision medicine.
