David A. Dorr · Mathematics & Statistics
David A. Dorr's lab focuses on improving healthcare for patients with multiple chronic conditions, especially older adults. By using advanced data integration techniques, they aim to enhance clinical decision-making and better understand health risks associated with conditions like hypertension and chronic kidney disease. Their innovative research seeks to create tools that combine data from different health sources to optimize patient treatment outcomes and safety.
Vishnu Mohan · Mathematics & Statistics
Dr. Vishnu Mohan's lab focuses on improving healthcare documentation practices to combat physician burnout caused by electronic health records (EHR). They explore various documentation assistance technologies, including speech recognition and medical scribes, especially in the context of telemedicine. The lab employs a mixed-methods approach to evaluate the impact of these technologies on provider workflow, chart completion, and patient communication.
Bonnie J. Nagel · Mathematics & Statistics · Physiology
Dr. Bonnie J. Nagel's lab focuses on understanding how children's cognitive and emotional development is affected by various factors, including mental health issues and environmental influences. The lab uses advanced mathematical and computational approaches to refine diagnostic tools that help clinicians identify and predict child psychopathology. By analyzing large datasets, including electronic medical records and brain imaging data, the lab aims to improve the diagnosis and treatment of mental health conditions in children.
Elinor L. Sullivan · Mathematics & Statistics
Dr. Elinor L. Sullivan's research focuses on how a child's development is influenced by their environment and genetic factors. Her lab is part of the Healthy Brain and Child Development Consortium, which studies 7200 mothers and their children across the United States from before birth until they are 10 years old. The goal is to identify which environmental factors, like substance exposure during pregnancy, can affect children's brain development and overall wellbeing, ultimately informing better public health policies.
Michael A Mooney · Mathematics & Statistics
Dr. Michael Mooney's lab focuses on understanding Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) by exploring how both genetics and environmental factors impact its development from childhood to adolescence. The lab uses innovative methods, such as combining genetic risk scores with geospatial analysis of environmental exposures, to identify influences on ADHD trajectories and outcomes. This research aims to better target interventions that could help reduce negative outcomes associated with ADHD, such as mood disorders and substance use.
