Biography
Dr. Aline Pedroso is a pharmacist and epidemiologist and is the Lead for Scientific Operations at the Cardiovascular Data Science (CarDS) Lab at the Yale School of Medicine. Her research focuses on large-scale studies on cardiovascular risk assessment, particularly in low-resource settings. She also works on studying existing and emerging practices and health policies and their effectiveness in improving patient outcomes. In addition, as the operations lead at the CarDS Lab, she is involved in the design and execution of multicenter studies that deploy digital health and artificial intelligence tools for improving the detection and prognostication of cardiovascular diseases. She manages a broad research portfolio at the CarDS Lab working with a large interdisciplinary team of clinician-scientists and data scientists for the design of innovative health technologies, and manages partnerships with academic, pharmaceutical, and industry partners.
