Introduction to Phenotyping

In this lesson, we're going to discuss a healthcare application of clustering called phenotyping. Phenotypes are medical concepts such as diseases or conditions. We know many phenotypes of patients based on existing medical knowledge such as major diseases. But there are many more phenotypes and their subtypes out there that we haven't discovered. Computational phenotyping is a way to use data available to us to discover those novel phenotypes. Phenotypes aren't just for disease diagnosis, though. We can also use those phenotypes for predicting healthcare cost, readmission risk, and supporting genomic studies.
