UI Joins DATICAN Data Science Initiative

The University of Ibadan (UI) has officially entered the "Data Science and Medical Image Analysis Training" (DATICAN) project.

This collaborative effort involves the University of Chicago and LASU, focusing on training Nigerian physicians in computer science and medical image analysis. The program aims to build a repository of "big data" to improve healthcare delivery for non-communicable diseases like stroke and cancer in Nigeria.
