# Hygieia Hygieia — The Python Package that Utilizes Feature Selection to Predict the Clinical and Genomic Basis of Disease

Hygieia is an open-source Python package that conducts feature selection on patient records, extracting impactful information about non-genomic and genomic characteristics. Hygieia combines cutting-edge and tried-and-tested gene expression analysis methods, placing machine learning algorithms and classical statistics tests at its user’s fingertips. Hygieia is simple to use and provides easy-to-interpret results, cementing itself as a fantastic tool for scientists without a solid computational background. The Ahmed Lab plans to expand Hygieia further as we explore the uncharted intersection between artificial intelligence and gene expression analysis, incorporating a vaster array of feature selection methods into the package in the future.
