The Data Analytics Research and Evaluation (DARE) Centre
The Data Analytics Research and Evaluation (DARE) Centre is an exciting new Austin Health and University of Melbourne collaboration that brings together data scientists and top clinical researchers to study the ‘Big Data' generated by our hospital electronic medical record systems.
