Abstract: Real-world evidence (RWE) is increasingly important for finding innovation opportunities and bringing novel healthcare solutions to market. Insights sourced from novel data streams like social media and patient discussions can be critical to build and launch the right solutions. Advances in machine learning have simplified tapping into non-standard data for clinically relevant patient insights. In this talk, we will present case studies of generating RWE from a range of novel data with the goal of expanding the RWE toolkit for innovation programs in healthcare.
