- The main unifying thread of my research has been supporting knowledge work, especially clinical decision making, by leveraging data and documents. My recent research addresses (1) integration of diverse data sets to support clinical research, specifically on rare diseases (vasculitis and MND) for which data integration across jurisdictions is essential (FAIRVASC & PARADISE, Precision-ALS) and (2) technical and socio-technical issues for adoption of patient-generated health data (such as home health device data and unstructured data) into clinical decision making. - POINT TO KEY IMPACTS of MY RESEARCH?? - All my research is strongly interdisciplinary, requiring a deep engagement with clinicians and clinical researchers. - My current H-index is 14 with a recent upward trajectory. I have more than 70 publications. - I have brought in a total of €xxxk funding as a collaborator on more than 12 funded research projects. - I lead the Heterogeneity and Interoperability (H&I) challenge (?budget for H&I) in the SFI funded ADAPT 2 centre. - I have supervised 4 successful PhDs and 2 research MSc and co-supervised 6 successful PhDs. I am currently supervising 4 PhDs and co-supervising 4 more. - I have supervised dissertations of more than 65 taught MSc students. More than 55 of these were Health Informatics students, many of whose projects, or skills acquired, have impacted healthcare in Ireland. - I was founder of 2 TCD spinouts aligned with my research, PBOC and BIOLOGIT.
