Abstract: Bridging the gap between top-notch deep learning research and effective clinical impact requires accuracy, broad validation, reproducibility and interpretability. In this talk, I present methods and solutions aiming at identifying disease trajectories from integrative data, discuss coping with selection bias by means of computational Data Analysis Plans, and showcase studies on Deep Learning applied to digital pathology.
