Departmental Overview

Computational Precision Health (CPH) is a new and growing department, pioneering a new discipline that joins the power of AI, clinical and public health excellence, and equity, leading a world-class academic training program, and delivering world-changing impact in hospitals, clinics and communities. CPH leverages the world leadership in computer science, engineering and statistics at
UC Berkeley, in clinical care, research and informatics at UCSF, and in population health at both institutions to transform personal and public health through computation.

CPH's novel bi-campus departmental structure joins over 70 computational and health faculty from both institutions into a singular unparalleled intellectual community, and recruits new world-class faculty into joint appointments at both UCSF and UCB. Academic programs that bridge the two campuses train a new class of talent to think and live at the intersection of health and computation, and CPH faculty, students and staff work to deploy solutions that center human values, fairness, and real-world impact.
