Research Degree Supervisor

Supervisor for students interested in medical informatics/health informatics - esp. decision support

Current Projects:

 Data mining in General practice
 Analysing data from routine general practice to look for unusual patterns in treatment, visits etc. Use of these patterns to generate alerts (feedback) for the practice/prectitioners.
MAWSON database - support for medical genetic testing
 Medical genetic testing produces information on variants of specific genes. MAWSON database should store such data, facilitate collaboration between different MGT laboratories and support *clinical* interpretation of such data. To fulfill this task the system should integrate database (to stored semi-structured data), workflows, collaboration tools, intelligent search engine etc.
