“Innovation is in our DNA here at Boston Children‘s,” Mr. Brownstein said. “But innovation only works if we can make the connections and secure the support needed to turn insights into treatments and tools. I want to work together with hospital administration; our brilliant doctors, nurses and scientists; and incubators, funders and companies to create paths that will benefit everyone: the innovators, the institution and, most importantly, patients.”
Mr. Brownstein joined the hospital’s informatics program in 2005 and in 2006 co-founded HealthMap, a team of researchers, epidemiologists and software developers that utilizes online informal sources for disease outbreak monitoring and real-time surveillance of emerging public health threats. He is also currently an associate professor of pediatrics at Harvard Medical School in Boston.
