Chethan Sarabu, MD, FAMIA, FAAP, trained in landscape architecture, pediatrics, and clinical informatics, builds anastomoses across these fields to design healthier environments and systems. He is the inaugural Director of Clinical Innovation for the Health Tech Hub at Cornell Tech. Over the past six years, Sarabu has been a Clinical Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Stanford Medicine and has worked in the health tech industry as Head of Product, Director of Clinical Informatics, and Medical Director at doc.ai and later Sharecare. He collaborates with the OpenNotes Lab as an AI & Informatics Strategist and serves as a board member of The Light Collective. In these roles, he has designed and implemented a wide array of innovations, including patient portals, EHR transformation, virtual clinical trials, AI-driven digital biomarkers, documentation, and health information policy initiatives, all through a lens of health equity and patient transparency.Sarabu co-founded CHILL, the Climate Health Innovation & Learning Lab, to connect the dots between climate, health, and the tech innovation community. As a shaper of the emergent field of climate health informatics, he has given multiple presentations on the topic at grand rounds and informatics symposia and is the Vice-Chair of the AMIA Climate, Health, and Informatics Working Group. His work bridges the Urban Tech and Health Tech Hubs at Cornell Tech, addressing the health impacts of climate change through innovative technological solutions. This journey began as an undergraduate at Cornell’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, which provided fertile ground for interdisciplinary thought and action. Sarabu looks forward to the next chapters of the Cornell story in catalyzing the New York Health Tech ecosystem and beyond.
