From Big Data to Big Mind: Building Data-Driven Frameworks to Solve Complex Diseases
The main theme of our research is large-scale analysis of disease genomes by integrating multi-omics data, evolutionary insights, electronic health records, as well as digitized clinical traits from imaging and wearable sensor readouts. The ultimate goal is to build data-driven frameworks to detect diseases before symptoms emerge and to achieve precision health management.

Understand use of CLIIR to improve quality and value of healthcare
Audit-log data captures moment to moment clinical care processes within EHR. It makes these labor-intensive approaches obsolete, providing more comprehensive data faster with more accuracy. Taking this audit-log data and combining it with clinical data enables us to research the impact of provider workflows, behaviors and interactions with the EHR on patient outcomes.
