Bioinformatics

Research interests include: Delirium, Postoperative Neurocognitive Disorders, APOE4 biology, Multi-omic studies

My primary research interests are in the use of novel sources of data, including the EHR, to conduct chronic disease research at the intersection of informatics, biostatistics, and epidemiology. My ongoing work aims to integrate informatics, epidemiology, and biostatistics to reduce the burden of chronic disease.

Dr. Smith’s work focuses on understanding molecular mechanisms implicated in chronic human disease using bioinformatics tools.
