Dr. Benjamin Ranard is a pulmonary and critical care medicine physician, Deputy Director of the Center for Patient Safety Science, and Assistant Professor of Medicine (in Biomedical Informatics) at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. With a goal of improving patient outcomes, Dr. Ranard’s research focuses on helping clinicians and health systems provide high quality medical care. He is working to build infrastructure and tools to support Learning Health Systems, health systems that create knowledge from local data and experience and integrate that knowledge with external evidence to continuously improve patient care. His research interests include clinical decision support, predictive modeling, and pragmatic EHR-embedded RCTs.
Gregory W Hruby, a Clinical Research Scientist with a Ph.D. in Biomedical Informatics from Columbia University, is dedicated to advancing clinical care value initiatives.
