This will help us better target treatments for patients with depression in order to improve remission rates.
Description (French)
Dans ce projet, nous analyserons de grands ensembles de données sur les patients et créerons un algorithme d'apprentissage machine capable d'utiliser des caractéristiques cliniques et démographiques simples des patients pour anticiper la réponse aux traitements et les trajectoires des traitements. Cette approche nous aidera à mieux cibler les traitements pour les patients souffrant de dépression afin d'améliorer les taux de rémission.
