Kenneth Mandl's Informatics Program Profile
|
|
|
|
|
Dr. Mandl is an expert on real time population health monitoring and has published several of the ground breaking journal articles in the field. He co-directs one of two Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Centers of Excellence in Public Health Informatics (PHIConnect). He is faculty at the Harvard Medical School Center for Biomedical Informatics.
He has built and runs the automated real-time surveillance system for Massachusetts and is developing advanced methods for the national Biosense system. He receives funding from the National Institutes of Health (National Library of Medicine) and CDC to develop automated regional real time population health monitoring systems, systems as well as information management tools to support patients, clinicians, hospitals, public health officials, and researchers, under normal and disaster conditions.
He runs the IndivoHealth personally controlled health records (PCHR) project. The Indivo PCHR, widely regarded as a transformative technology is being deployed at Children's Hospital Boston for all patients, at MIT for students and employees, and for the millions of employees of the dossia (www.dossia.org) founding companies--including Intel, Wal-Mart, Cardinal Health, and AT&T. Mandl co-chaired the Harvard Medical School Meetings on Personally Controlled Health Record Infrastructure in 2006 (www.pchri2006 ) and 2007 (www.pchri2007).
Dr. Mandl is currently working to extend the real time surveillance methods to the area of pharmacovigilance for post-approval pharmaceuticals.
