Dr. Roy Adams received funding to develop machine learning methods for phenotyping dementia patients from EHR data, aiming to improve Alzheimer's disease research by addressing data bias and error.
Description
This award supports Dr. Roy Adams in developing machine learning-based methods to phenotype dementia patients using electronic health record data. The research aims to improve understanding and modeling of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias by addressing bias and error in EHR data. The project involves developing binary and continuous phenotypes of dementia, applying these methods to Johns Hopkins EHR data, and validating them with clinical and longitudinal study data.
