An Duy-Tran was flooded for requests for his diabetes life expectancy simulation, leading him to create a synthetic population of 5 million diabetes patients to estimate life expectancies #HSR24

Very interesting presentation on the development of a First Nations PREM for primary healthcare - Tracey Piccoli, University of Sydney ucrh.edu.au/project/vali... #HSR24 #HSRAANZ #healthservicesresearch @hsraanz.bsky.social

So exciting to have #HSR24 underway - a wonderful start to the conference with many amazing presentations to come!

Love this perspective on #HealthServicesResearch in a digital age: “Health services researchers might be the wet blanket of magical thinking around IT in health” from Julie Adler-Milstein, keynote at #HSR2024 #HSR #digitalhealth

Excited to be presenting today about a project to improve the lives of people living with dementia by involving them and other stakeholders in developing outcome measures for care. STARDIT report here: stardit.wikimedia.org.au/wiki/0202208... @scienceforall.bsky.social @hsraanz.bsky.social #HSR24

Prof Adler-Milstein provides the “cold blanket” view of EHRs: aside from computerized order entry, every other dimension of quality has failed to see major improvements in care #digitalhealth #HSR24
