Big data in Covid-19

'Big data' is often a bogeyman term, but at the start of the Covid-19 outbreak, reworking how we used data helped keep Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust running, and our radiologists were at the forefront of pioneering diagnostic techniques.

Interviewees

• Dr Andrew Fogarty, NUH chest medicine physician and University of Nottingham epidemiologist
• Dr Mark Simmonds, who had just taken up to the role of divisional director for Medicine at NUH a few weeks before the pandemic struck
• Dr Iain Au-Yong, consultant radiologist at NUH
• Dr Tim Card, gastroenterologist at NUH gastroenterologist and University of Nottingham clinical epidemiologist

They also mention two epidemiologists on the team from the University of Nottingham - Professor Joe West, and Professor Colin Crooks.
