About me
Walking in the rockies
Hi.
I’m Robert Dunlea. I’m an physician and scientist with a long interest in technology and its under utilization in health care. Because of this I am currently an Advanced Informatics Fellow with the Veteran’s Health Administration and a student at the University of Utah Department of Biomedical Informatics.
My current interests and projects all relate to the question of how to use technology to provide individualized care to patients especially in care transitions (discharges, referrals, etc.). I am working on identifying contextual information (information unique to an individual patient that would allow a clinician to better apply decision making) for designing decision support applications for electronic referral and identifying functional status issues.
In previous careers, I’ve delved into fundamental research (biochemistry and physical chemistry), clinical research, and medicine which always seemed to include a healthy dose of IT or technology along the way. I am an unabashed geek since hacking my old ohio scientific computer at age six. This comes in handy from hacking android tablets for adaptive survey portals in office waiting rooms to putting a useful OS on my old apple TV.
I also enjoying doing real things too: hiking, yoga,vegetarian cooking, canoing, road biking, snow skiing, snow shoeing, and playing music (guitar, bass, ukulele, etc.).
I would enjoy working with a group or company that shares these passions. If you would like to hire I’d probably work for you. Cool huh?
