Within the healthcare communities, there exist vast amounts of big data from myriad sources (patient records, imaging and/or sensor data, genomics/proteomics/metabolomics data, social media information, nutrition etc.). There is an urgent need to develop mathematical science tools and techniques that are capable of seamless integration of data from these sources. In turn, the integration of such diverse datasets may provide an opportunity to make significant advances in Healthcare modelling.
