Dr Wen Hwa Lee on using data to tackle the leading cause of legal blindness

Dr Wen Hwa Lee is the CEO of the charity, Action Against Age-related Macular Degeneration (AAAMD). The organisation is focused on tackling the leading cause of legal blindness in the developed world at its earliest stages. AAAMD is one of the partners delivering the INSIGHT Health Data Research Hub and the ODI is working with them to decide how the data made available by INSIGHT is shared. In this episode of the podcast, Dr Lee describes the potential that could be unlocked by INSIGHT and what motivated him, personally, to get involved. When the podcast was recorded, the Hub was known as the ‘Data Innovation Hub’
