Secondary Analysis of Electronic Health Records

intermittent physiological measurements in ambulatory and intensive care settings. Thirdly, he is developing techniques to transform continuous monitoring data into measurements that are appropriate for real-time alerting of patient deteriorations.Mohammad Ghassemi

Mohammad is a doctoral candidate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. As an undergraduate, he studied Electrical Engineering and graduated as both a Goldwater scholar and the University's "Outstanding Engineer". In 2011, Mohammad received an MPhil in Information Engineering from the University of Cambridge where he was also a recipient of the Gates-Cambridge Scholarship. Since arriving at MIT, he has perused research at the interface of machine learning and medical informatics. Mohammad's doctoral focus is on signal processing and machine learning techniques in the context of multi-modal, multi-scale datasets. He has helped put together the largest collection of post-anoxic coma EEGs inthe world. In addition to his thesis work, Mohammad has worked with the Samsung corporation, and several entities across campus building "smart devices" including: a multi-sensor wearable that passively monitors the physiological, audio and video activity of a user to estimate a latent emotional state.

Alistair Johnson

Alistair joined the Laboratory for Computational Physiology as a postdoctoral associate in 2015. He received his B.Eng in Biomedical and Electrical Engineering at McMaster University, Canada, and subsequently read for a D.Phil in Healthcare Innovation at the University of Oxford. His thesis was titled "Mortality and acuity assessment in critical care", and its focus included using machine learning techniques to predict mortality and develop new severity of illness scores for patients admitted to intensive care units. Before joining the LCP, Alistair spent a year as a research assistant at the John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford, where he worked on building early alerting models for patients post-ICU discharge. Alistair's research interests revolve around the use of data collected during routine clinical practice to improve patient care.

Matthieu Komorowski

Matthieu holds board certification in anesthesiology and critical care in both France and the UK. A former medical research fellow at the European Space Agency, he completed a Master of Research in Biomedical Engineering at Imperial College London focusing on machine learning. Dr Komorowski now pursues a PhD at Imperial College and a research fellowship in intensive care at Charing Cross Hospital in London. In his research, he combines his expertise in machine learning and critical care to generate new clinical evidence and build the next generation of clinical tools such as decision support systems, with a particular interest in septic shock, the number one killer in intensive care and the single most expensive condition treated in hospitals.

DominicMarshall

Dominic is an Academic Foundation doctor in Oxford, United Kingdom. Dominic read Molecular and Cellular biology at the University of Bath and worked at Eli Lilly in their Alzheimer's disease drug hunting research program. He pursued his medical training at Imperial College London where he was awarded the Santander Undergraduate scholarship for academic performance and ranked first overall in his graduating class. His research interests range from molecular biology to analysis of large clinical data sets and he has received non-industry grant funding to pursue the development of novel antibiotics and chemotherapeutic agents. Alongside clinical training, he is involved in a number of research projects focusing on analysis of electronic health care records.

Tristan Neumann

Tristan Naumann is a PhD candidate in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at MIT working with Dr. Peter Szolovits in CSAIL's Clinical Decision Making group. His research includes exploring relationships in complex, unstructured data using data-informed unsupervised learning techniques, and the application of natural language processing techniques in healthcare data. He has been an organizer for workshops and "datathon" events, which bring together participants with diverse backgrounds in order to address biomedical and clinical questions in a manner that is reliable and reproducible.



Kenneth PaikKenneth is a clinical informatician driving quality improvement and democratizing access through technology innovation, combining a multidisciplinary background in medicine, artificial intelligence, business management, and technology strategy. He is a research scientist at the MIT Laboratory for Computational Physiology investigating the secondary analysis of health data and building intelligent decision support system. As the co-director of Sana, he leads programs and project driving qualityimprovement and building capacity in global health. He received his MD and MBA degrees from Georgetown University and completed fellowship training in biomedical informatics at Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts General Hospital Laboratory for Computer Science.Tom Joseph Pollard

Tom is a Postdoctoral Associate at the MIT Laboratory for Computational Physiology. Most recently he has been working with colleagues to release MIMIC-III, an openly-accessible critical care database. Prior to joining MIT in 2015, Tom completed his PhD at University College London, UK, where he explored models of health in critical care patients in an interdisciplinary project between the Mullard Space Science Laboratory and University College Hospital. Tom has a broad interest in how we can improve the way that critical care data is managed, shared, and analyzed for the benefit of patients. He is a Fellow of the Software Sustainability Institute.

Jesse Raffa

Jesse is a research scientist in the Lab for Computational Physiology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, USA. He received his PhD in biostatistics from the University of Waterloo (Canada) in 2013. His primary methodological interests are related to the modeling of complex longitudinal data, latent variable models and reproducible research. In addition to his methodological contributions, he has collaborated and published over 20 academic articles with colleagues in a diverse set of areas including: infectious diseases, addiction and critical care, among others. Jesse was the recipient of the distinguished student paper award at the Eastern North American Region International Biometric Society conference in 2013, and the new investigator of the year for the Canadian Association of HIV/AIDS Research in 2004.

Justin Salciccioli

Justin is an Academic Foundation doctor in London, United Kingdom. Originally from Toronto, Canada, Justin completed his undergraduate and graduate studies in the United States before pursuing his medical studies at Imperial College London. His research pursuits started as an undergraduate student while completing a biochemistry degree. Subsequently, he worked on clinical trials in emergency medicine and intensive care medicine at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston and completed a Masters degree with his thesis on Vitamin D deficiency in critically ill patients with sepsis. During this time he developed a keen interest in statistical methods and programming particularly in SAS and R.
