The lack of access to extensive and varied datasets remains one of the major issues facing the field of machine learning, despite recent advancements. This is especially true in the healthcare sector, where it can be challenging to gather and use patient data for research because it is frequently compartmentalized across many healthcare providers. By enabling secure and privacy-preserving access to distributed data, blockchain technology, and federated learning have the potential to overcome these difficulties. In this article, we'll look at how federated learning and blockchain are used in the healthcare industry and talk about their benefits and drawbacks. We will also examine the Hedera platform, which makes use of blockchain technology and a new algorithm called Gossip Degree to provide a revolutionary method of federated learning. We will also go over the potential effects of federated learning on the healthcare sector and what it means for future research.
