Summary

My research focuses on clinical natural language processing, digital phenotyping, clinical data infrastructure, cohort identification for clinical and translational research. My primary focus lies in leveraging electronic health records (EHRs), with a particular emphasis on unstructured EHR data, including, but not limited to, clinical notes, radiology reports, and pathology reports. I have expertise in developing natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to extract valuable information from these sources, such as cancer stage, histology, tumor grade, cancer subtypes, and treatment outcomes. Furthermore, I've designed cohort exploration tools to facilitate feasibility studies for clinical trials and streamline patient recruitment by harnessing the power of EHRs.
