MITRE https://www.mitre.org and Mayo Clinic https://mayoclinic.org are working together to conduct R&D on common data elements for oncology, cardiology, and COVID-19. According to Dr. John Halamka, President, Mayo Clinic Platform, “Defining common data elements will help transform the way we approach cancer and chronic disease by facilitating additional research.”
The collaborative research will further develop platforms for intelligent automation to include mCODE™ and mCARD, and common data standards for oncology and cardiology to improve coordination for patient care. MITRE and Mayo will also work together to create a platform known as mCOVID to support planning, containment, and mitigation of COVID-19.
“MITRE and Mayo Clinic’s combined expertise in digital health will develop new ways to address some of healthcare’s most challenging problems”, said Dr. Jay Schnitzer, MITRE, Chief Technology and Medical Officer.
In addition, MITRE and Mayo Clinic Co-Chair the COVID-19 Healthcare Coalition of more than 1,000 private sector, non-profit, and academic organizations to provide data driven insights and research.
