Machine learning. One of the buzz expressions currently being bandied around healthcare. But how can it be applied in sports medicine? In this BJSM podcast, we discuss it with two scientists currently applying machine learning to their practice, Chris Kelly and Dr Tommy Wood from nourishbalancethrive, a US-based performance optimization company. We discuss the applications of machine learning and its potential implications for healthcare. Topics include: - How to go about creating a machine learning model - What have they managed to predict so far - Limitations of using machine learning - Where do they see this technology moving forward to the future? - How can clinicians in sports use machine learning in practice? - How can anyone learn about machine learning?
