Reported case-counts for coronavirus are wrinkled with data errors, namely misclassification of the tests and selection bias associated with who got tested. The number of covert or unascertained infections is large across the world. How can one determine optimal testing strategies with such imperfect data? In this talk, we propose an optimization algorithm for allocating diagnostic/surveillance tests when your objective is estimating the true population prevalence or detecting an outbreak. Infectious disease models and survey sampling techniques are used jointly to come up with these strategies

Students’ mobility patterns on campus and the implications for the recovery of campus activities post-pandemic (November 10, 2020 10:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/79204 79204-20231445@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, November 10, 2020 10:30am
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Institute for Data Science

This research project uses location data gathered from WiFi access points on campus to model the mobility patterns of students in order to inform the planning of educational activities that can minimize the transmission risk.
The first aim is to understand the general mobility patterns of students on campus to identify physical spaces associating with a high-risk of transmission. For example, we can extract insights from WiFi data about which locations are the busiest during which time of the day, how much time was typically spent at each location, and how do these mobility patterns change over time. The second aim is to understand how students share the same physical spaces on campus (e.g. attending a lecture, meeting in the same room, sharing the same dorm). Students are presumably in a close proximity when they are connected to the same WiFi access point. We model a student-to-student network from their co-location activities and use its network centrality measures as proxies of transmission risk (i.e. students in the center of a network would have a higher chance of getting exposed to COVID-19 than those in the periphery). We then correlate network centrality measures with academic information (e.g. class schedule, course enrollment, study major, year of study, gender, ethnicity) to determine whether certain features of the academic record are related to transmission risk. For example, we can identify which groups of students are more vulnerable to potential infections by associating with a high network centrality. Insights from this research project will inform the University of Michigan’s strategies for the recovery of educational activities post-pandemic with empirical evidence of students’ mobility pattern on campus as well as factors that associate with a high-risk of transmission.

Modeling the Perceived Truthfulness of Public Statements on COVID-19: A New Model for Pairwise Comparisons of Objects with Multidimensional Latent Attributes (November 10, 2020 10:50am) https://events.umich.edu/event/79205 79205-20231446@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, November 10, 2020 10:50am
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Institute for Data Science

What is more important for how individuals perceive the truthfulness of statements about COVID-19: a) the objective truthfulness of the statements, or b) the partisanship of the individual and the partisanship of the people making the statements? To answer this question, we develop a novel model for pairwise comparisons data that allows for a richer structure of both the latent attributes of the objects being compared and rater-specific perceptual differences than standard models. We use the model to analyze survey data that we collected in the summer of 2020. This survey asked respondents to compare the truthfulness of pairs of statements about COVID-19. These statements were taken from the fact-checked statements on https://www.politifact.com. We thus have an independent measure of the truthfulness of each statement. We find that the actual truthfulness of a statement explains very little of the variability in individuals’ perceptions of truthfulness. Instead, we find that the partisanship of the speaker and the partisanship of the rater account for the majority of the variation in perceived truthfulness, with statements made by co-partisans being viewed as more truthful.

The proliferation of digital information in all human experiences presents difficult challenges and offers unique opportunities of managing, modeling, analyzing, interpreting, and visualizing heterogeneous data. There is a substantial need to develop, validate, productize, and support novel mathematical techniques, advanced statistical computing algorithms, transdisciplinary tools, and effective artificial intelligence apps.

Spacekime analytics is a new technique for modeling high-dimensional longitudinal data, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). This approach relies on extending the notions of time, events, particles, and wave functions to complex-time (kime), complex-events (kevents), data and inference-functions, respectively. This talk will illustrate how the kime-magnitude (longitudinal time order) and kime-direction (phase) affect the subsequent predictive analytics and the induced scientific inference. The mathematical foundation of spacekime calculus reveals various statistical implications including inferential uncertainty and a Bayesian formulation of spacekime analytics. Complexifying time allows the lifting of all commonly observed processes from the classical 4D Minkowski spacetime to a 5D spacetime manifold, where a number of interesting mathematical problems arise.

Spacekime analytics transforms time-varying data, such as time-series observations, into higher-dimensional manifolds representing complex-valued and kime-indexed surfaces (kime-surfaces). This process uncovers some of the intricate structure in high-dimensional data that may be intractable in the classical space-time representation of the data. In addition, the spacekime representation facilitates the development of innovative data science analytical methods for model-based and model-free scientific inference, derived computed phenotyping, and statistical forecasting. Direct neuroscience science applications of spacekime analytics will be demonstrated using simulated data and clinical observations (e.g., UK Biobank).

Challenges in dynamic mode decomposition (November 10, 2020 11:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/79207 79207-20231448@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, November 10, 2020 11:30am
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Institute for Data Science

Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) is a powerful tool in extracting spatio-temporal patterns from multi-dimensional time series. DMD takes in time series data and computes eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a finite-dimensional linear model that approximates the infinite-dimensional Koopman operator which encodes the dynamics. DMD is used successfully in many fields: fluid mechanics, robotics, neuroscience, and more. Two of the main challenges remaining in DMD research are noise sensitivity and issues related to Krylov space closure when modeling nonlinear systems. In our work, we encountered great difficulty in reconstructing time series from multilegged robot data. These are oscillatory systems with slow transients, which decay only slightly faster than a period.
Here we present an investigation of possible sources of difficulty by studying a class of systems with linear latent dynamics which are observed via multinomial observables. We explore the influences of dataset metrics, the spectrum of the latent dynamics, the normality of the system matrix, and the geometry of the dynamics. Our numerical models include system and measurement noise. Our results show that even for these very mildly nonlinear conditions, DMD methods often fail to recover the spectrum and can have poor predictive ability. We show that for a system with a well-posed system matrix, having a dataset with more initial conditions and shorter trajectories can significantly improve the prediction. With a slightly ill-conditioned system matrix, a moderate trajectory length improves the spectrum recovery. Our work provides a self-contained framework on analyzing noise and nonlinearity, and gives generalizable insights dataset properties for DMD analysis.

Video is being acquired at an alarming rate across domains, including social research, healthcare, entertainment, sporting and more. The ability to code this video—attribute certain properties, labels, and other annotations—in support of analytical domain-relevant questions is critical; otherwise, human coding is required. Human coding, however, is laborious, expensive, not repeatable, and, worse, often error prone. Video coding, an area within artificial intelligence and computer vision, seeks automated and semi-automated methods to support more effective and robust video coding. This workshop will review the state of the art in video coding from a capabilities, limitations and tooling perspective and present real-world use-cases.

Advances in population genetic research have the potential to create numerous important advances in the science of population dynamics. The interplay of micro-level biology and macro-level social sciences documents gene–environment–phenotype interactions and allows us to examine how genetics relates to child health and wellbeing. However, traditional genetics research is based on nonrepresentative samples that deviate from the target population, such as convenience and volunteer samples. This lack of representativeness may distort association studies. Recent findings have provoked concern about misinterpretation, irreproducibility and lack of generalizability, exemplifying the need to leverage survey research with genetics for population-based research. This project is motivated by the research team’s collaborative work on the Fragile Family and Child Wellbeing Study and the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study, which present these common problems in population genetics studies, to advance the integration of genetic science into population dynamics research. The project will evaluate sample selection effects, identify population heterogeneity in polygenic score analysis, and develop strategies to adjust for selection bias in the association studies of educational attainment, cognition status and substance use for child health and wellbeing. This interdisciplinary project will strengthen the validity and generalizability of population genetics research, deepen new understandings of human behavior and facilitate advances in population science.

Metabolite concentration levels in biospecimens are important for many critical care health illnesses like sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Sepsis is responsible for 35% of patients who die in the hospital and ARDS has a mortality rate of 40%. Missing data is a common challenge in metabolomics datasets. Many metabolomics investigators impute fixed values for missing metabolite concentrations and this imputation approach leads to lower statistical power, biased parameter estimates, and reduced prediction accuracy. Certain applications of metabolomics data, like breath analysis by gas chromatography, used for the prediction or detection of ARDS, can be done without the quantification of individual metabolites. This would circumvent the quantification step of individual metabolites, eliminating the missing data problem. Our team has developed a rapid gas chromatography breath analyzer, which has been challenged by missing data, a time-consuming process of breath signature alignment, and the following quantification of metabolites across patients. Analyzing the breath signal directly could eliminate these challenges. End-to-end deep learning systems are neural networks that operate directly on a raw data source and make a prediction directly for the target application. These systems have been successful in diverse fields from speech recognition to medicine. We envision an end-to-end deep learning that leverages transfer learning, from the collection of many healthy samples, that could rapidly multiply the applications of our breath analyzer. The end-to-end deep learning system will enhance our breath analyzer so it could be used more efficiently in areas of the intensive care unit to the battlefield to identity patients or soldiers with critical illnesses like sepsis and ARDS and monitor longitudinal changes in breath metabolites.

Machine learning-guided equations for the on-demand prediction of natural gas storage capacities of materials for vehicular applications (November 11, 2020 9:40am) https://events.umich.edu/event/79212 79212-20231453@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, November 11, 2020 9:40am

Transportation is responsible for nearly one-third of the world’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emission because of burning fossil fuel. While we dream for zero-carbon vehicles, future projections suggest little decline in fossil fuel consumption by the transportation sector until 2050. Therefore, ‘bending the curve’ of CO2 emission prompts the adoption of low-cost and reduced-emission alternative fuels. Natural gas (NG), the most abundant fossil fuel on earth, is such an alternative with nearly 25% lower carbon footprint and lower price compared to its gasoline counterpart. However, the widespread adoption of natural gas as a vehicular fuel is hindered by the scarcity of high-capacity, light-weight, low-cost, and safe storage systems. Recently, materials-based natural gas storage for vehicular applications have become one of the most viable options. Especially, nanoporous materials (NPMs) are in the spotlight of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) because of their exceptional energy storage capacities. However, the number of such NPMs is nearly infinite. It is unknown, a priori, which materials would have the expected natural gas storage capacity. Therefore, searching a high-performing material is like ‘finding a needle in a haystack’ that slows down the speed of materials discovery against growing technological demand. Here we present a novel approach of developing machine learning-guided equations for the on-demand prediction of energy storage capacities of NPMs using a few physically meaningful structural properties. These equations provide users the ability to calculate energy storage capacity of an arbitrary NPM rapidly using only paper and pencil. We show the utility of these equations by predicting NG storage of over 500,000 covalent-organic frameworks (COFs), a class of NPMs. We discovered a COF with record-setting NG storage capacity, surpassing the unmet target set by DOE. In principle, the data-driven approach presented here might be relevant to other disciplines including science, engineering, and health care.

Space weather has impacts on Earth ranging from rare, immensely disruptive events (e.g., electrical blackouts caused by solar flares and coronal mass ejections) to more frequent impacts (e.g., satellite GPS interference from fluctuations in the Earth’s ionosphere caused by rapid variations in the solar extreme UV emission). Earth-impacting events are driven by changes in the Sun’s magnetic field; we now have myriad instruments capturing petabytes worth of images of the Sun at a variety of wavelengths, resolutions, and vantage points. These data present opportunities for learning-based computer vision since the massive, well-calibrated image archive is often accompanied by physical models. This talk will describe some of the work that we have been doing to start integrating computer vision and space physics by learning mappings from one image or representation of the Sun to another. I will center the talk on a new system we have developed that emulates parts of the data processing pipeline of the Solar Dynamics Observatory’s Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (SDO/HMI). This pipeline produces data products that help study and serve as boundary conditions for solar models of the energetic events alluded to above. Our deep-learning-based system emulates a key component hundreds of times faster than the current method, potentially opening doors to new applications in near-real-time space weather modeling. In keeping with the goals of the symposium, however, I will focus on some of the benefits close collaboration has enabled in terms of understanding how to frame the problem, measure success of the model, and even set up the deep network.

Astrophysics has always been at the forefront of data analysis. It has led to advancements in image processing and numerical simulations. The coming decade is bringing qualitatively new and larger datasets than ever before. The next generation of observational facilities will produce an explosion in the quantity and quality of data for the most distant sources, such as the first galaxies and first quasars. Quasars are the most energetic objects in the universe, reaching luminosity up to 10^14 that of the Sun. Their emission is powered by giant black holes that convert matter into energy according to the famous Einstein’s equation E = mc^2. The largest progress will occur in quasar spectroscopy. Detailed measurements of spectrum of quasar light, as it is being emitted near the central black hole and partially absorbed by clouds of gas on the way to the observer on Earth, allows for a particularly powerful probe of quasar environment. Because spectra of different chemical elements are unique, spectroscopy allows to study not only the overall properties of matter such as density and temperature, but also the detailed chemical composition of the intervening matter. However, the interpretation of these spectra is made very challenging by the many sources contributing to the absorption of light. In order to take a full advantage of this new window into the nature of supermassive black holes we need detailed theoretical understanding of the origin of quasar spectral features. In a MIDAS PODS project we are applying machine learning to model and extract such features. We are training the models using data from the state-of-the-art numerical simulations of the early universe. This approach is fundamentally different from traditional astronomical data analysis. We have only started learning what information can be extracted and still looking for a new framework to interpret these data.

Bodies represent the sites of socially constructed differences and power relations. As such, the personal is political, and bodies are subject to political interpretations. Body politics based on racial (and/or ethnic) ascriptions (along with other intersecting elements such as sex, gender, sexuality, age, social class, ability, etc.) have adversely affected the overall health and wellness of bodies of Color in general, and Black bodies in particular - impacting their abilities, opportunities, access (inclusion/exclusion), care/treatment, and the overall nature of their lived experiences. Consequently, racialed body politics have contributed to an array of health disparities being more pronounced in communities of Color. However, movement offers a variety of health benefits and is therefore, a source of empowerment for racially politicized bodies.

This event will feature a keynote presentation by Dr. Monique Butler, U-M Kinesiology alumna and Chief Medical Officer for HCA Healthcare North Florida Division. She will address the theme "Where Do We Go From Here: Body Politics and Movement Towards Racial Empowerment."

This event is sponsored by the U-M Health Sciences units and hosted by the School of Kinesiology.

Toxic Equilibrium: Structural Racism and Population Health Inequities (February 24, 2021 10:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/81748 81748-20949404@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, February 24, 2021 10:00am
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Institute for Social Research

February 24, 2021
10:00am – 6:30pm
Eastern Time

The American social structure is composed of a resilient, symbiotic network of the formal and informal institutions that operate to maintain an equilibrium toward White privilege. Across time and place, changes in one institution can reverberate through other institutions, and importantly, when we attempt to intervene toward equity in one institution, other institutions can move to restore this toxic equilibrium. Cultural racism, which encompasses the socially accepted ideologies, values, and behavioral norms determined by the dominant power group, sets this equilibrium. Particularly insidious as it operates on the level of our shared social subconscious, the processes that comprise cultural racism are invisible to many because they are our “givens”, our assumptions, our defaults – but the result shapes our answers to the question: Whose life counts?

For our 6th annual University of Michigan RacismLab Symposium on the Study of Racism, we pay tribute to the legacy of Dr. James Jackson, whose mentorship guided our 1st annual symposium in 2015 and resulted in our guest edited Social Science and Medicine special issue on cultural and structural racism. In the introduction to this special issue, we called for all scholarship on race and health to be grounded in interdisciplinary frameworks of cultural and structural racism and critical race theory.

Our annual symposium continues to be sponsored by the University of Michigan Survey Research Center at the Institute for Social Research. For our virtual meeting in 2021, we partner with the Interdisciplinary Association for Population Health Science (IAPHS) to move our discussions to a national stage. As we move to a national, interdisciplinary discussion, we are honored that a pioneer in the study of structural racism, Dr. Eduardo Bonilla Silva will serve as the keynote speaker this year.

Organized By: Michigan Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease Center

The University of Michigan M-LEEaD Center is co-sponsoring an event to mark the 5-year anniversary of the bipartisan legislation called the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act. This reform law was designed to modernize U.S. industrial chemical policy to promote health, but has it lived up to its promise?

Public understanding is limited regarding how exposures to toxic chemicals affect health and how they might be regulated. Unlike pharmaceuticals, industrial and commercial chemicals are rarely tested for safety before they reach the U.S. market. The 1976 TSCA has been widely acknowledged to be a weak and ineffective law, and widespread exposures and harms continue. In the U.S., everyone is exposed to industrial and toxic chemicals, dozens and probably hundreds – well before birth. The amount of chemicals manufactured and imported continues to grow – it is trillions of pounds – and these chemicals remain largely unregulated. At the same time, we have seen an increase in chronic diseases, such as diabetes, autism, and infertility. Not everyone is equally at risk, and a higher burden of disease falls on low wealth communities and communities of color. These health disparities in exposures and health effects are illustrated and exacerbated by COVID.

The amended TSCA gave the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency new requirements and authorities. The public health impact points to the need for the U.S. EPA to fully use its new powers to evaluate all risks from hazardous chemicals and set policies which protect health and are accountable to high-risk communities. Preventive actions are urgently needed.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies

"You are what you eat" is a common phrase that researchers and scientists are proving remarkably true. Unhealthy diets not only lead to obesity, but that obesity can even lead to cognitive decline, or a decreased ability to think.

The third installment of the NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies Mini Symposium Series will explore what unhealthy foods do to the nervous system, a historical look at the downhill trend of eating habits, and how everyone can find an optimal nutritional balance. These presentations will be followed by a question and answer session.

“Nutrition & Brain Health” is made possible by the generous support of Robert and Katherine Jacobs, who believe that informing people about healthy food options is critically important to the health of their community.

Eva Feldman, MD, PhD, Director of the NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies, will moderate the 30-minute mini symposium and discuss diet and brain health. Debra Reid, PhD, MA, Curator of Agriculture and the Environment at The Henry Ford, will discuss the history of the American diet and how urban residents obtained fresh fruits and vegetables from urban markets, such as the Central Farmers Market that is under reconstruction at Greenfield Village. Michigan Medicine Lead Dietitian Danielle Karsies, MS, RDN, will provide direction for how people can apply the information from Drs. Feldman and Reid to help them make better food choices.

E. coli meets world: how the environment shapes a bacterial cell (March 19, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/82376 82376-21084383@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, March 19, 2021 12:00pm

Abstract: Like other single celled organisms, bacteria are uniquely sensitive to changes in their physical and chemical environment. With only the minimal protection offered by their cell envelope, fluctuations in nutrient availability, pH, osmolarity, and temperature have an immediate impact on diverse aspects of cell physiology as bacteria struggle to adapt to the new condition. On a more extended time scale, nutrient availability is one of the major determinants of bacterial cell morphology. *Escherichia coli* cells are three times larger when cultured at steady state in nutrient rich conditions than in nutrient poor ones, due to the actions of nutrient-dependent division inhibitors, accelerated lipid synthesis and a concomitant increase in plasma membrane capacity, and other yet to be identified factors. Little is known, however, about the effect of other environmental conditions on bacterial cell morphology. Focusing on one environmental variable, I will discuss how modest changes in pH—too small to affect growth rate—alter the activity of the essential proteins that construct *E. coli*’s peptidoglycan cell wall, increase resistance to clinically relevant antibiotics, and reduce cell length by as much as 20%. Together this work identifies pH as a significant environmental determinant of bacterial physiology and morphogenesis whose impact is mediated primarily through changes in the cell envelope.

Molecular Genetics in the Orchard (March 26, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/82378 82378-21086350@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, March 26, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology

Fruit trees in commercial orchards are increasingly planted in high densities to maximize quality, enable mechanization, conserve resources, and increase profitability. A hundred years ago a traditional apple orchard may have had one to two hundred free standing trees per acre, while now planting over a thousand tree per acre trained to elaborate trellis systems is common practice. To maintain such high-density plantings, a significant amount of labor is needed along with growth regulator treatments and, in some cases, specialized dwarfing rootstocks. Still, not all fruit trees are easily amenable to growing in these systems. One of the focuses of my research program is to determine what controls fruit tree shoot architecture at the molecular and genetic level. The ultimate goal of this project is to identify methods that will reduce the labor required to manage high-density 2-dimensional plantings. In the process, we are generating fundamental knowledge about how plants grow the way they do, particularly in connection to the regulation of branch, or lateral shoot, angle. The main genes we are studying are TILLAR ANGLE CONTROL 1 (TAC1), LAZY1, and WEEP, which are present in vascular plants. TAC1 promotes the formation of wide branch angles, while the related gene LAZY1 promotes narrow branch angles. WEEP on the other hand regulates branch tip orientations. Peach trees with a non-functional WEEP allele exhibit a weeping branch phenotype. Genetic studies have linked the roles of these three genes together, and molecular and physiological studies suggest they have roles in regulating shoot growth in response to light and gravity. For this talk, I will present current and developing knowledge about their molecular mechanisms in connection to the regulation of lateral shoot orientations in plants.

The COVID-19 pandemic has produced massive amounts of information that require an accurate analysis to predict outcomes and design solutions rapidly. It also has required experts from many different backgrounds to rally around in the quest for rapid responses in the race to save lives.

Many of the most prominent of these researchers are from Michigan, and a significant number of them are computational scientists who addressed questions such as: What measures should be taken to minimize contagion? Is it safe to ride a bus? How are supply and demand chains being affected?

This virtual symposium will bring together researchers from the State of Michigan to share their past and future insights into the pandemic.

This is a free Zoom event, open to the general public. Please register to attend: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_47ZZyf_ZTFqwef3kd8icsg

Organized By: CEW+

RSVP here: http://www.cew.umich.edu/events/5th-annual-cew-advocacy-symposium-accessing-navigating-systems

Join CEW+ for its annual fall symposium themed Accessing & Navigating Systems. This event is free and open to all activists, advocates, and allies.

This year’s symposium will feature:

- opening remarks by Christina R. Cutlip, PhD, Senior Managing Director, Head of Client Engagement and National Advocacy at TIAA. She is the head of the Client Engagement & National Advocacy team, which is responsible for expanding relationships with industry and government associations, while also focusing on client engagement.
- the Mullin Welch Lecture given by C. Nicole Mason, PhD, who currently serves as the president and chief executive officer of the Institute for Women’s Policy Research (IWPR), a leading voice on pay equity, economic policies, and research impacting women. Mason is a political scientist and intersectional scholar with a focus on economic security, racial equity, and women’s leadership. Mason will share her pathway into advocacy work and how she approaches policy and social change with consideration for the intersectional impact of race, class, and gender. Registrants will receive a PDF copy of Mason’s publication Leading at the Intersections: An Introduction to the Intersectional Approach Model for Policy & Social Change. The keynote will be facilitated by Catherine Hadley, a senior majoring in Political Science and U-M’s 28th Truman Scholar.
- the awarding of the 2021 Carol Hollenshead Inspire Award for Excellence in Promoting Equity and Social Change. Awardees are faculty, staff, and students (either an individual or a group) whose sustained efforts have resulted in greater equity with regard to gender, race, class, age, disability, gender identity, or sexual orientation. Awardees will participate in a panel discussion regarding amplifying narratives and engaging communities to create systemic change.
- a capstone presentation by outgoing CEW+ Twink Frey Visiting Social Activist Dessa Cosma, MA, founder of Detroit Disability Power. Cosma will discuss her ongoing work to advocate for voting rights, emphasizing the importance of building the political power of the disability community. Cosma says, “I wish that more people understood that disabled people are a constituency of voters.” Although their needs and political affiliations are diverse, Cosma states, disabled people share common challenges that can be addressed through the political process.

Presentation 1
The Learning Health (Record) System

Speaker:
Philip R.O. Payne, PhD, FACMI, FAMIA, FAIMBE, FIAHSI
Janet and Bernard Becker Professor and Director, Institute for Informatics (I2), Associate Dean for Health information and Data Science, Chief Data Scientist, at Washington University in St. Louis

This presentation will explore the ways in Biomedical Data Science and Informatics research are helping to realize the potential of EHR technologies in the context of creating an LHS, from the optimization of workflow and human factors, to the generation of reproducible and systematic clinical phenotypes, to the delivery of emergent knowledge to both providers and patients via advance clinical decision support systems.

Presentation 2
Techniques and Challenges for EHR Phenotyping

Speaker:
Lisa Bastarache, MS
Research Associate Professor Department of Biomedical Informatics,
Vanderbilt University

Electronic health records (EHR) contain a wealth of real world data that can be used for research purposes. However, extracting phenotype information from EHRs can be challenging. EHR phenotyping can be divided into two types: (1) Fast phenotyping which seeks to capture a broad swath of the medical phenome, and is often accomplished using coded EHR data (e.g. billing codes) and (2) slow phenotyping that seeks to achieve high precision and recall for a single phenotype, and often uses multiple EHR data types (e.g. medications, text, lab results). This talk will describe specific use-cases for both fast and slow phenotyping, and review challenges that are commonly encountered in creating research-grade EHR phenotypes.
