How to Learn in "The Learning Healthcare System"
National Library of Medicine Informatics Lecture Series
The Institute of Medicine has argued for more than 20 years that we should view every patient interaction as an (uncontrolled) experiment, and learn from its outcome. Dr. Szolovits has been a participant in numerous collaborative projects, trying to apply this method to data about a broad range of patients suffering from conditions such as arthritis, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, autism, depression. In this lecture, he will review some of the methodological challenges he has encountered and the hard-won lessons he has learned. These...

Kinyoun Lecture - Early Life Microbiome Influences on Metabolism, Immunity, and Disease Risk
Dr. Martin J. Blaser will deliver the 2014 Joseph J. Kinyoun Memorial Lecture on Tuesday, October 7, at 3 p.m. in the Lipsett Amphitheater in the NIH Clinical Research Center. Blaser will discuss how the human microbiome influences metabolism, immunity, and disease early in life.
The gastrointestinal tract contains a dense and complex microbial environment, where bacterial and human cells coexist and affect the equilibrium and health of our bodies. This environment forms early in life, and the way in which the assembly occurs influences the body’s metabolism and immune system development. Altering the microbiome during...
