Precision Analytics

The main goal of the Precision Analytics Initiative is to bring informatics tools closer to clinical care by providing expertise and other resources to researchers and clinicians. This initiative’s working group consists of both clinical leadership in Precision Medicine as well as technically experienced consultants from the health system and other clinical departments to provide strategic advice to leaders in precision medicine.

Leadership has transferred to Dr. Melissa Haendel and has been incorporated into two new initiatives: 

  1. Rare Disease Informatics Working Group: As part of the UNC Rare Disease Network, this working group aims to improve the identification, diagnosis, and management of patients within UNC Health (and beyond) who have rare and monogenic conditions. 
  2. SOM Research Task Team: This group is focused on identifying and documenting requirements for research analytics and AI infrastructure, particularly for increasingly large and complex data types and sources that may not be amenable to current architecture (e.g., SHIRE).
