Overview

Thomas R. Campion, Jr., Ph.D. leads Weill Cornell Medicine's efforts to support clinical and translational investigators with electronic patient data, especially through the secondary use of electronic health record (EHR) data.  Dr. Campion is Professor of Research in Population Health Sciences in the Division of Health Informatics.  As Chief Research Informatics Officer in the Information Technologies & Services Department (ITS) and Director, Biomedical Informatics in the Clinical & Translational Science Center (CTSC), he leads the Architecture for Research Computing in Health (ARCH) program, which matches investigators with tools and services for obtaining electronic patient data and enabling scientific workflows.  His research interests include electronic infrastructure to support clinical and translational scientists, measurement of the biomedical research enterprise, computable phenotyping, clinical decision support, health information exchange, and organizational issues in informatics.  He earned a master of science and doctor of philosophy in biomedical informatics from Vanderbilt University and a bachelor of arts in organizational studies and German from the University of Michigan.
