Without transformational change, the sustainability of the NHS is at risk.

A large number of recent FT articles have focussed on the NHS and its need to modernise. But progress remains far too slow

"Fit for the future: 10 Year Health Plan for England".

The paper makes clear that the NHS is at a historic crossroads, facing unprecedented pressures on access, outcomes, workforce morale, and technology adoption. The government's conclusion is unambiguous

Which in itself leads to a vicious cycle where NHS managers remain oblivious to the huge opportunity that confronts them.

Timely investment in modern data science technologies is sorely needed, particularly in light of the UK government's newly published Policy Paper

But managers working in the NHS are often entirely oblivious to the advantages of applying simple data science methods (nevermind machine learning/Al).

This leads to data science teams in medical settings -- including primary, secondary and tertiary care -- being under-resourced

Very convincing clinical details, too. Impressive synthetic data created using the Wasserstein GAN*.
