Testimonials

 

"I chose to join the Clinical Informatics Fellowship at Stony Brook because of the program’s unique blend of hands-on experience, academic rigor, and collaborative culture. The faculty here are not only leaders in the field but are also genuinely invested in mentorship and our future sucess. I’ve had the opportunity to work on impactful projects spanning digital health, EHR and workflow optimization, and data analytics. There are opportunities to network with other local fellowship programs and at several national conferences throughout the year. The program has given me the tools and confidence to lead change at the intersection of technology and patient care."

"I was drawn to the fellowship at Stony Brook by the opportunity to be mentored by world-renowned experts from the Department of Biomedical Informatics and collaborators from the Division of Vascular Surgery who have guided me to build the skills I need to advance personalized surgical patient care through the integration of clinical data, imaging, and advanced analytics."

"I chose the Clinical Informatics fellowship at Stony Brook because of its strong foundation in applied data science and its integration with clinical operations. As a family and preventive medicine physician with a background in public health, I was looking for a program that valued interdisciplinary collaboration and real-world problem solving. Stony Brook stood out for its commitment to building scalable solutions that enhance patient care, and its flexibility allows me to pursue interests in clinical decision support, AI applications, and equitable innovation in primary care."
