Digital Health Using Data Science

The digitization of healthcare has led to an unprecedented growth in health-related data, offering new opportunities to transform clinical decision-making, disease prediction, and patient engagement. However, extracting actionable insights from diverse data sources such as electronic health records, wearable devices, and mobile health apps requires a fusion of domain knowledge in healthcare and technical expertise in data science. This paper presents a structured, interdisciplinary framework for digital health that emphasizes practical strategies for data acquisition, preprocessing, feature engineering, machine learning, and ethical data use. The model promotes a holistic understanding of digital health challenges and opportunities, preparing future professionals to apply computational tools in real-world healthcare environments responsibly.
