To evaluate patient-reported experiences of telehealth and disparities in access, use, and satisfaction with telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Electronic health record (EHR)-based patient messages can contribute to burnout. Messages with a negative tone are particularly challenging to address. In this perspective, we describe our initial evaluation of large language model (LLM)-generated responses to negative EHR patient messages and contend that using LLMs to generate initial drafts may be feasible, although refinement will be needed.

Diagnosing rare diseases is an arduous and challenging process in clinical settings, resulting in the late discovery of novel variants and referral loops. To help clinicians, we built IDeRare pipelines to accelerate phenotype-genotype analysis for patients with suspected rare diseases.

To address database interoperability challenges to improve collaboration among disparate organizations.

Integrating clinical research into routine clinical care workflows within electronic health record systems (EHRs) can be challenging, expensive, and labor-intensive. This case study presents a large-scale clinical research project conducted entirely within a commercial EHR during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The use of interactive mobile health (mHealth) applications to monitor patient-reported postoperative pain outcomes is an emerging area in dentistry that requires further exploration. This study aimed to evaluate and improve the usability of an existing mHealth application.

In retrospective secondary data analysis studies, researchers often seek waiver of consent from institutional Review Boards (IRB) and minimize risk by utilizing complex software. Yet, little is known about the perspectives of IRB experts on these approaches. To facilitate effective communication about risk mitigation strategies using software, we conducted two studies with IRB experts to co-create appropriate language when describing a software to IRBs.

To link compliant, universal Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) ophthalmic imaging data at the individual patient level with the American Academy of Ophthalmology IRIS® Registry (Intelligent Research in Sight).

To design a novel artificial intelligence-based software platform that allows users to analyze text data by identifying various coherent topics and parts of the data related to a specific research theme-of-interest (TOI).

To use natural language processing (NLP) of clinical notes to augment existing structured electronic health record (EHR) data for classification of a patient's menopausal status.
