DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Medical informatics is the critical bridge connectin
 g clinical research to practice within a Learning Healthcare System (LHS)
 . This presentation highlights the core bioinformatics capabilities and a
 ctivities of the VA CSP-CERC center in the context of establishing a qual
 ity management system using large observational databases and causal infe
 rence research to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of treatment stra
 tegies\, aiding medical professionals in patient care decisions. This inv
 olves leveraging high-quality VA data with scalable advanced statistical 
 methods\, especially when randomized clinical trials are impractical. Spe
 aker Bio: Mihaela Aslan\, PhD\, is a Senior Research Scientist at the Yal

  Studies Program Clinical Epidemiology Research Center (CSP-CERC). As a m
 athematical statistician\, she conducts methodological research using hig
 h-dimensional data on a wide range of clinical topics\, such as causal in
 ference methods leveraging electronic medical records to emulate randomiz
 ed clinical trials. CME accredited seminar. Information for claiming cred
