Casey Overby Taylor, PhD, Assistant Professor of Medicine and Biomedical Engineering, has accepted the invitation to join the Institute for Computation Medicine as a core faculty member.

Taylor’s research draws from biomedical informatics and the related field of biomedical data science, to address the challenge of how to incorporate technology and digital methodologies into clinical research and healthcare practices.

Taylor has received funding from AHRQ to develop clinical decision support using an implementation model that engages stakeholders and uses open source decision support platforms (R21 HS023390 [Overby]). Additionally, Taylor serves as co-Chair of the Electronic Health Records (EHR) integration workgroup.

Taylor is currently building the Translational Informatics Research and Innovation (TIRI) group that is pursuing research with application areas including translational research, precision medicine, and precision public health.

Taylor completed pre-doctoral National Library of Medicine biomedical informatics training and National Human Genome Research Institute genome sciences training fellowships at the University of Washington in 2011. She also completed a post-doctoral National Library of Medicine informatics training fellowship at Columbia University in 2013. Before joining Hopkins in 2016, she was Assistant Professor in the University of Maryland Program for Personalized and Genomic Medicine.
