Abstract CN01-02: Instrumenting the healthcare enterprise for discovery research

It is critical for us to leverage healthcare technology to find ways to meet our goals in clinical research. The Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside (i2b2) project is used to accrue patients for clinical trials using data from a hospital's medical record. It is also valuable as a platform for generally validating disease phenotypes as part of in-silico studies that explore associations of phenotypes with the information gathered from biologic samples such as the genotypes of the patients and their tissues. The software can adapt to Patient Surveys and Reported Outcomes as well as routine Electronic Medical Record data. The software can be used to support multisite trials across institutions using the Shared Healthcare Research Informatics Network (SHRINE).Citation Format: Shawn N. Murphy.
