Research Interests
Research Narrative
The Center for Quantitative Health (CQH) in the Division of Clinical Research at Massachusetts General Hospital focuses on utilizing large data sets to develop strategies for probabilistic medicine and quantitative health.
We have four main areas of focus:
- Developing ways to better match patients with effective treatment
- Developing tools to allow clinicians to quantify short- and long-term risks for individual patients
- Identifying promising treatments already approved by the FDA that can be repurposed for other applications
- Monitoring treatment outcomes
Our Philosophy
We believe that despite the incredible hype associated with big data, there is an opportunity to better serve our patients by developing tools for making clinically actionable predictions.
By facilitating the interaction of clinical and basic scientists at Mass General and the broader community, and providing tools to do challenging but essential studies, CQH is intended to bridge the gap between large data sets and clinical application. It works closely with the Mass General clinical and research programs, with the Clinical Trials Network and Institute (CTNI), and with translational programs such as the Psychiatric and Neurodevelopmental Genetics Unit (PNGU) and the Center for Genomic Medicine (CGM).
