HealthLight - Bridging Health Information Gap Through Al

In Vietnam, the lack of accessible public health literature hinders the management of infectious diseases and chronic conditions, leading to complications and deaths. Hence, the project HealthLight aimed at addressing Vietnam’s need for accessible and understandable public health literature. HealthLight specifically proposes the development of a medical Question-and-Answer (QA) system utilizing the advanced Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture. The HealthLight project will contribute to understanding the practical implementation of advanced RAG and modular RAG systems in a medical setting, particularly the use of a Knowledge Graph (KG) index to retrieve more precise information.

Beyond the research purpose, the project aims to empower individuals to manage their health proactively by providing clear and understandable medical information based on the latest research. This will improve public health literacy in Vietnam, aiding in better disease prevention, early diagnosis, and informed healthcare decision-making for both the general population and healthcare professionals.
