Virtually Priceless Thoughts

Reflections on Health, Informatics, and Research

A day at OHSU

without comments

I spent the day at Oregon Health Science University with Dr. Joan Ash and her team today.

I was invited to spend the day there and was able to present on my current research for my first time to a surprisingly large audience (thank you all for attending). I also spent time with some great people learning and getting feedback. They have a productive and energized group there. I think that is what most impressed me. There was play in the rooms as they discussed dreadfully dull (to most people) topics like CDSS taxonomies, thematic coding and findings from months of qualitative analysis review.

Yes, I was thrilled to find some like minded folks on my trip.

I was also excited by the exchanges I was able to have, even in the short period of time. There were several people working on, or had worked on ideas that very much compliment the work I am doing now on Circles of Care and Continuity of Care.

The discussions will, I have no doubt, add to the richness of my evaluation, both from the perspective of adding some new ideas but also from the simple energizing from this visit. Thank you for that.
