What I do at Emory

Ashish Sharma on his work – “I work at the Emory University School of Medicine, and I specialize in biomedical data science.

Advances in high-performance computing and machine learning have allowed researchers to make better use of data in both medical research and clinical care. The ability to undertake data-driven science has led to initiatives such as the Precision Medicine Initiative and the Cancer Moonshot — multi-year efforts that hold the promise of changing not only our understanding of disease but also the development and delivery of therapy”.

A key ingredient is providing investigators the tools to tame the ever-increasing data deluge. That’s where we come in. Our lab specializes in novel systems and software for managing, exploring, and processing biomedical data.

“While we tend to focus on medical imaging-based studies in the area of cancer, the tools are fairly generic and have found use in non-imaging and non-cancer projects such as transplants and public health informatics.

Here’s a video of a Google talk on predicting Sepsis by applying the tools and techniques we have
developed”.
