Tranform EHR Data Into Actionable Insights

Advancing EHR data in clinical research—and training the next generation to use it.

The Problem

Real-world data (RWD), such as electronic health records (EHR), hold immense potential to accelerate medical discovery and product development. Yet, technical complexities, prohibitive costs, and a shortage of specialized talents prevent researchers from harnessing its full power.

Collaborative Research Engine

We build a collaborative space where clinical scientists, data scientists, and data providers work together on selected, high-quality research manuscripts initiated from our academic partners.

We foster shared interests and build connections between industry and academia.

We offer hands-on training for college and graduate students, medical fellows, and junior investigators on designing and conducting real-world data studies.

We develop algorithms and tools for EHR data standardization, quality assessment, and analytics.

Our Work

For Researchers

We evaluate manuscript proposals from researchers on collaboration and use of our data. We will offer data as well as study design and analytics support.

For Corporate Sponsors

Sponsors can submit research topics, and we will find and match our academic partners to the topics to promoate academia-industry collaboration.

For Individuals

Individuals such as clinicians and patients are welcome to submit research questions, and we will grow research projects out of them.

Liver metastasis Mechanism in breast cancer

Tumor-derived FXII engages the intrinsic coagulation cascade to support breast cancer liver metastasis

Anti-Psychosis Drug Effect on Mortality of Alzheimer's Disease

The development of Alzheimer can be fatal as senior patients are susceptible to other comorbidities. Anti-psychosis drugs are sometimes used to treat AD as a way to help improve cognition. We studied how use of anti-psychosis drugs impacts mortality of patients with Alzheimer's disease.

Metformin Prescription Pattern in Prediabetes Patients

We studied the pattern of prescription, discontinuation, and reinitiation of metformin among prediabetes patients.

Anti-depressant and suicide events in autism patients

Anti-depressant and suicide-related events in individuals with autism spectrum.

Sepsis Mortality in Pediatric and Adult Populations

In-Hospital Mortality Prediction Among Sepsis Patients Using Electronic Health Records

Severe Respiratory Infection (SRI) and Cancer Metastasis

Does SRI contribute to more aggressive cancer metastasis, a hypothesis supported by mouse data.
