Faculty
Biomedical and Health Informatics , Information School

I am an Associate Professor in both the Information School and the Division of Biomedical & Health Informatics in the Medical School at the University of Washington. I received my Ph.D. in Medical Informatics from Stanford University, my M.S. in Computer Science from the University of Texas, and my B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Kansas. My published papers span a wide range of topics whose central theme is to understand the problem of information overload in a variety of health contexts and to develop new types technology to address those problems. I received an NSF CAREER Award for my work on literature-based discovery systems, am on the editorial board for the Journal of Biomedical Informatics, and serve on the standing NIH grant-review committee for the National Library of Medicine.
