About CPH
CPH is building a new discipline at the intersection of machine learning/AI, clinical and public health practice, and equity. The center develops new methods in computer science, machine learning and AI, statistics, data science, and health informatics to enable and evaluate new health interventions for real-world impact. CPH is a joint initiative between UC Berkeley and UCSF that combines computation with multimodal health data to tailor diagnosis, prevention, and treatment more precisely and effectively to individual patients and communities.
