Using epidemiology and artificial intelligence to describe a complex primary care population in a learning health system
#Context
POPLAR, the Primary Care Ontario Practice-Based Learning and Research Network
Some of the most substantial opportunities for transformative care, QI and research lie within primary care. Clinical research in primary care means that results are more generalizable to daily practice. Primary care practice-based learning and research networks are key building blocks for knowledge production, dissemination and practice improvement.

Describing a complex primary health care population in a learning health system to support future decision support and artificial intelligence initiatives
Primer for artificial intelligence in primary care
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are transforming clinical practice. There is a need for tailored education for end users and a need for more primary care stakeholder engagement during development and testing of AI-driven tools. An in-depth or technical understanding of AI is not required for clinicians to be able to make meaningful contributions to AI-related initiatives; however, most existing AI education resources focus on methods or are not specific to primary care.
Using Learning Collaborative Teams to Address the COVID-19 Cancer-Screening Backlog
This research poster was presented at the North American Primary Care Research Group (NAPCRG) Practice-Based Research Network Conference in June 2022. It presents the results of the Alliance's first learning collaborative, which supported member centres in equitably clearing their cancer screening backlogs built up through the COVID-19 pandemic.
