The UK government is promoting a “strategic shift” from “treatment to prevention.” Healthcare alone cannot restrain demand and prevention requires action on wider determinants of health, say @Vageesh_Jain and @drtombeaney bmj.com/content/389/bmj.r804…

As promised, a short 🧵 on each chapter from my thesis. 📖 In Chapter 1, I set out the challenges of MLTC, my rationale for applying clustering and the importance of considering disease sequences for personalised care.

💡 In my thesis, I draw inspiration from natural language processing, treating the order of diseases in a person as analogous to the order of words in a sentence. Find out more in later chapters! 📚doi.org/10.25560/116345
