Regenstrief Institute data experts are actively working to further the understanding of COVID-19 through real-world data. In the last week, the Regenstrief chief executive officer and a vice president have been lead authors on papers published in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR).

Regenstrief Research Scientist Jennifer Maratt, M.D., M.S., co-authored a commentary in Gastroenterology about the benefits of gene-specific surveillance colonoscopy strategies for Lynch Syndrome, an inherited syndrome that increases risk for colon cancer.

Christopher M. Callahan, M.D., a Regenstrief Institute research scientist, co-authored an editorial in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society (JAGS), “Improving care for dementia: Re-imagining the advocacy playbook,” that observes dementia care focused at the community, policy, and societal levels urgently requires more attention from researchers and clinicians.
