Last week, Knowli Data Science's General Counsel Amy Thorn, JD, MPH and CEO Emily Šaras, PhD were invited to speak at the Florida State University College of Medicine.👩🏻⚕️ During their lecture to medical students in the Family Medicine Interest Group, Amy and Emily presented experiences and best practices for using data-driven decision-making to improve public health and healthcare access and quality. 🚀 We’re grateful to Amy and Emily for representing Knowli and sharing their knowledge with the next generation of #healthcare professionals at Florida State University!🎉 🦉#DataScience #PublicHealth #DataDriven #FSU #FsuCollegeOfMedicine #KnowliDataScience

I am excited to share a recent publication that I was a part of with other Premier colleagues. The article, in the American Journal of Medical Quality, is about the importance of considering social determinants of health in hospital ranking programs. I am so glad we are creating ways to elevate the important topic of health equity. More to come about how 100 Top Hospitals will be highlighting this!

The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI)-funded ADVANCE clinical research network includes electronic health record data—all in a common data model—for millions of patients nationwide, patients who are from communities historically under-represented in research. Inclusive research infrastructure is key to driving #healthequity. OCHIN’s ADVANCE team includes independent investigators with diverse methodological expertise, all committed to using research to advance health equity. #OCHINresearch

WATCH ➡ Dr. Aaron Baugh’s keynote address, "Race Against Time: Updating Clinical Algorithms in Light of New Understanding," is both enlightening and thought-provoking. In this impactful presentation, Dr. Baugh delves into the complexities of race-based medicine, focusing on the significant flaws in current lung-function testing and its broader implications for healthcare. His compelling narrative intertwines historical context with current medical practices, challenging existing paradigms and providing an in-depth analysis of how social drivers of health—such as socioeconomic conditions, environmental exposures and experiences of racism—play a significant role in patient outcomes. Critically, he calls for a more nuanced and rigorous approach to clinical decision-making tools that move beyond outdated and inaccurate assumptions about race. Join us in reflecting on these critical issues and be inspired by Dr. Baugh’s call to action for advancing racial equity in clinical algorithms: https://lnkd.in/ez4eztvW #EquityInEquations #EncodingEquity

Congratulations to Neighborhood Healthcare and Altura on publishing their white paper about increasing clinical study access for patients of color! It was an honor to work with Altura CEO Pete Fronte, MBA, and his team to help edit the paper, which summarizes a study that aimed to increase diversity in research and overall health equity. The study examines roadblocks that prevent communities of color from taking part in clinical studies and offers ways CHCs and life science companies can help increase participation. #clinicalresearch #clinicaltrials #healthequity #healthcareaccess #chcs
