Biography
I am a tenured Associate Professor of Biomedical Informatics with training in informatics, artificial intelligence and clinical neurology. My research is focused on the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning to problems in the Learning Health System (LHS) that include: development of a learning Electronic Medical Record (LEMR) system, precision medicine and personalized modeling, data mining and causal discovery from biomedical data, research data warehousing for clinical, translational, and informatics research, and automated visual analytics. The Vis Lab is in the Department of Biomedical Informatics at the University of Pittsburgh, and is a core faculty laboratory in the Biomedical Informatics Training Program and the Intelligent Systems Program at the University of Pittsburgh.
Research Interest
Application of artificial intelligence, machine learning, data mining and Bayesian methods to problems in clinical medicine and bioinformatics, data mining of biomedical data, patient-specific predictive modeling, medical anomaly detection, decision support systems, personalized medicine and genomic medicine.
