“With less than six percent of cancer patients participating in clinical trials and the majority of information collected by EHR systems incompatible, high-quality data for cancer research is severely lacking. By outlining common, foundational data elements, the promise of mCODE is to accelerate interoperable data exchange and enable critical care- and research-based decisions—a vision that Syntropy shares," said Dr. Jay Schnitzer, MITRE’s chief medical and technology officer.
Shreya Chandrasekar was worried about how the COVID-19 crisis would impact her graduate studies and her summer internship at MITRE. She didn't need to be concerned; we had plenty for her to do. Chandrasekar applied her health-focused knowledge in user experience and data visualization to a resource to help the country's government and business leaders cope with the COVID-19 pandemic.
How is your workplace handling your health and safety? What's effective? What's not? We have adapted our own practices for our employees to enhance their experience in this challenging time.
Our staff designed the cyber warfare learning track to teach students the tools, techniques, and methodologies of hackers, how to apply them, and how to defend against them. This track also included a particular focus on embedded systems—the special-purpose electronic devices that are embedded in almost everything around us.
"We are very happy to partner with MITRE and have encouraged other leagues to partner with MITRE in the SQUINT program. There is so much distrust of the media that having a nonpartisan ally like SQUINT from a highly trusted entity like MITRE is reassuring," said Anu Sahai, co-president of the League of Women Voters of the Fairfax Area in Virginia.
"Four years ago, we were less aware as a nation that cyber threats were going to hit our election systems. In 2020, the nation has much greater awareness and coordination, and a body of tools in place. The threat is greater, but our preparedness is greater too," says Emily Frye, MITRE's co-lead for election integrity.
"We want to expand the role of outcome based research and information in the policy domain, through our experience, our technology, and our unique access to data," says Jason Providakes, MITRE president and CEO.
"Members wrestled with challenging, sometimes competing, issues such as weighing infection control practices against psychosocial needs of residents. These complex issues do not have easy solutions, which made the diverse experience and insights of members integral to developing the recommendations and actions endorsed in the final report," said Dr. Jay Schnitzer, chief medical and technology officer at MITRE.
Protecting critical infrastructure traditionally centers on the physical backbone of daily life: water mains, highways, electrical plants. Equally important is the virtual technology we now rely on. MITRE drives disruptive solutions to defend both realms.
To help mitigate potential harm arising from the use of consumer-generated data (CGD) for healthcare purposes, the MITRE research team developed An Ethical Framework for the Use of Consumer-Generated Data in Health Care. The framework provides values, principles, and guidelines that organizations that use consumer data can apply to promote ethical CGD use and better protect users.
