I help medical doctors and other healthcare providers make evidence-based clinical decisions. I search for and find the best available evidence (from systematic reviews and high-quality randomized trials to cohort studies and case series). I analyze and critically appraise the evidence to identify strengths and weaknesses and summarize it, focusing on the most important outcomes. I present the evidence, along with recommendations from professional organizations and other important content from peer-reviewed published literature, in disease-oriented topics organized to minimize the time it takes to find answers. At each of these steps I work with medical doctors, including general practitioners and specialists, to ensure the content is as clear as possible and focuses on the most important options. I engage in a wide variety of areas including neurology (my main focus), psychiatry, palliative care, ophthalmology, ENT, oral health, primary care, gastroenterology, allergy, dermatology, oncology, and others.My previous life was as a neuroscientist using machine learning and theoretical/computational models of brain processes to study skill development and motor control (see pubs for details).
