Evaluating different types of GOSE scores among patients treated in trauma centers in the US

Mary Ann Liebert, Inc./Genetic Engineering News
Peer-Reviewed Publication

A new study in the peer-reviewed Journal of Neurotrauma aims to determine the extent to which Glasgow Outcome Scale Extended (GOSE) scores that take into account the combined effect of the brain and extracranial injuries (GOSE-All scores) differ from scores excluding effects attributed to extracranial injuries (GOSE-TBI scores) among patients who were treated at Level 1 trauma centers in the U.S.

Lehigh University researcher receives NSF award to enhance flu forecasting through innovative technology

Lehigh University
Grant and Award Announcement

Can public health experts make a forecast for the flu or another infectious disease as accurately as a computational model?

Thomas McAndrew, assistant professor, Department of Biostatistics and Health Data Science in Lehigh University’s College of Health, has received an award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to research and develop a novel approach to forecasting. His project, “IHBEM: Enhancing Influenza Forecasting Through an Integrated Platform for User-Generated Temporal Forecasts,” will help improve evidence-based public health decision making for infectious diseases.
