Biography: 

Dr. Grant completed a PhD in theoretical physics at Harvard University and completed medical school and residency at 苹果淫院.

Current research: 

My primary research focus is currently the development of an Emergency Department Artificial Intelligence Flow Assistant. The central question here is: Can machine learning and artificial intelligence methods genuinely improve care? A related question that I am also studying is: What is the value of machine learning methods in the development of generalizable clinical decision rules and risk stratification tools?

In the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic, I am also carrying out research designed to assess the value of modifications to usual Emergency Department operations in response to the pandemic.
