Speaker:
Ken Mandl, MD, MPH

Boston Children's Hospital (BCH)
Director, Computational Health Informatics Program (CHIP)

Professor Harvard Medical School
Chair in Biomedical Informatics and Population Health

Ken Mandl is trained as a pediatrician and pediatric emergency physician.

His work at the intersection of population and individual health exerts a sustained influence on the developing field of biomedical informatics. He was a real time bio-surveillance pioneer. Having long advocated for patient participation in producing and accessing data, Mandl was a designer of the first personal health and participatory surveillance systems.

Cognizant of electronic health record system limitations, Mandl was a developer of SMART on FHIR (substitutable apps running universally on health IT) for innovators to reach large markets and patients and doctors to access an “app store for health.” Through his influence on the 21st Century Cures Act, federal regulations require support for SMART interfaces, ensuring standardized access to individual and population data at system scale, “without special effort.”

Dr. Mandl has been elected to the National Academy of Medicine, American Society for Clinical Investigation, Society for Pediatric Research, American College of Medical Informatics and American Pediatric Society. He is a recipient of the he Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers, the Donald A.B. Lindberg Award for Innovation in Informatics and the Clifford A. Barger Award for top mentors at Harvard Medical School. His trainees lead informatics in academia and in the world’s largest technology companies.

He was advisor to two Directors of the CDC and chaired the Board of Scientific Counselors of the NIH’s National Library of Medicine.

Moderators:
Anne Quaadgras, Director, MIT Sloan Health Systems Initiative

Product Lead

Martin Trust Center for MIT Entrepreneurship

https://www.linkedin.com/in/dcwusa/

Doug is the Founder of CentanniPark,  a full-service strategic consultancy for mobile and web technology, with projects underway for digital e-health, health equity, and affordable housing. As a technology leader for the latest FHIR healthcare data interoperability standards, Doug is serving as co-coordinator for the HL7 CodeX Consortium’s Quality Measures for Cancer in collaboration with MITRE and the Institute for Health Equity as part of HL7’s Gravity Project.

Previously, Doug was the Chief Product Officer and VP Strategic Accounts for
1upHealth, a leader in healthcare data technology through the use of the new FHIR standards.  Doug played a key role in the adoption of 1upHealth’s cloud-based FHIR platform by top health insurance companies, Medicaid states, hospital systems, and life science research partners, managing hundreds of millions of patients and billions of healthcare data resources. Under his leadership, the company grew from a team of four to over 150 employees today.

As a serial entrepreneur, Doug has held the positions of CTO and VP of Engineering and Product positions for multiple successful startups, including Zipcar, Runkeeper, and the Family Education Network. These roles have given him the opportunity to lead from the early startup stages through successful acquisitions and IPOs. He is also a mentor for MassChallenge HealthTech, the MIT Enterprise Forum, and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

Doug enjoys spending time with his family, as well as running and cycling to train for events such as BikeMS, Pan Mass Challenge, and the Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge to raise funds for cancer and multiple sclerosis research. Doug has a Bachelor’s degree from Princeton University in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
