Key areas of research interest include but not limited to: (1) methods to synthesize real-world evidence from multiple sources, addressing various types of data heterogeneity (2) methods for improving the generalizability and transferability of algorithms across different healthcare systems and addresses the biases caused by lack of representation of certain minority and disadvantaged populations (3) methods to make multi-institutional collaborative learning more efficient, by designing data harmonization tools and statistical methods based on summary-level statistics with privacy protection. The postdoctoral research fellow will also work with domain experts and collaborators to implement the methods in large clinical research networks including OHDSI, 4CE, PCORnet, eMERGE and psycheMERGE to study mental disorders, cancers, and cardiovascular diseases. |
