The Future of Health Data
About the role
Here is the poster that I presented at the New England Database Conference 2013, held over at MIT‘s Stata Center in Cambridge, MA. I’ve also excised the abstract for ease of reading (and so that Google will zero in on this page.)
ABSTRACT: Medicine is already becoming more dependent on the medical data contained within the medical record systems mandated by the Recovery Act. Doctors and medical practitioners have begun to shift into a data-based decision-making paradigm. The next great leap that data-driven medicine will take will involve assimilation of proteomic- and genomic-level databases into the medical record system itself. This will enable three key functions: the foundation of data mining/predictive modeling, better patient care via greater depth of knowledge, and the ability to tailor gene-based or protein-specific treatments to the patient. All of this requires massive databases and data-driven enterprises: it can be argued that medicine is becoming a true data-focused field.

About Vellum Information
Vellum Information is a research and development platform focused around information visualization, web and data mining and analysis, healthcare and global health technology and data utilization.
We have a firm foot in open-source technology and public datasets, and believe that the best solutions are found in the root. It is our job to unearth these depths and make your answers accessible.
Computer science is really an art. They do not teach that in school, but the truth of it is that computers have a common language, and there are infinite dialects of it spoken around the world.
Current projects include:
Heath information technology and public health matters (and how the two meet).
Information visualization and beautiful data. This is a mantra for 2011: Make it simple, make it beautiful. Data can and should be straighforward and appealing. The era of static tables and charts is past.
Database development, web and application deployment and design - expert system design, case-based reasoning systems, knowledge management, and AI applications.
A keen interest in the Cloud and how it can be utilized to deploy an application across endless instances, which ties firmly into the rest of our projects.
Data/web mining and analysis, text mining, and content analysis. Semantic content and ontology creation.
Publishing several reports, as well as working on some academic presentations and publications. Look for us on Amazon and Google Books.
