As major industries, research and healthcare are being significant advanced by developments in health informatics and information technology more generally. These developments provide new possibilities for understanding the complexity of factors impacting on health outcomes. They enable a sounder evidence base for understanding the effectiveness of clinical interventions and the quality and cost effectiveness of health care and service delivery.

This is an opportunity to hear Professor Andrew Morris, a leading research authority in health informatics and use of Big Data linkage processes in health and health service delivery. Professor Morris will draw on his considerable experience to discuss the issues and responses that need to be considered by researchers and organisations as they seek to utilise the potential of Big Data to support better evidence for clinical, health and service delivery outcomes.
