The United States is struggling to provide health care in the face of ever increasing demand. As medical students continue their decades long march toward specialization, questions of how to provide generalist care become quickly intertwined with that of who…

In the last decade, the Web 2.0 brought technological changes in the manner of interaction and communication between users and applications, and among applications as well. Rich Internet Applications (RIA) offer user interfaces with a higher level of interactivity, similar…

The goal of this project was two-fold: first, to improve the performance of machine learning
algorithms for the diagnosis of pediatric tuberculosis, and second, to use machine learning algorithms
to better understand the problem of diagnosis. We constructed and examined…

We explore, in increasing complexity, various strategies for addressing the Multi-
Armed Bandit Problem in order to find the algorithm that maximizes the clickthrough
rate in the Exploration and Exploitation Challenge 3 competition. The data used
result from the actions…

We propose in this work a general procedure to
efficient EM-based design of single-layer SIW interconnects,
including their transitions to microstrip lines. Our starting point
is developed by exploiting available empirical knowledge for
SIW. We propose an efficient SIW surrogate…

This research explores the metabolic role of the gut microbiota in the global
obesity crisis and rising threat of global warming. Enteric microbiota in the rumen emit
methane as a by-product of metabolite degradation. Experiments – primarily on mice –

Academic-industry partnerships in biomedical research come in many forms, but
those that occur around clinical research are the most prominent. Researchers at academic
medical centers have historically conducted a large proportion of industry-sponsored
clinical trials, as they alone had the…
