Sylvester Tumusiime

As an informatics manager, my job involves supporting the standardization of health systems data from different electronic health record systems into a common data model that is utilized by researchers across different research institutes in the United States of America. I act as the interface between partners at different health systems - this includes working with stakeholders to prioritize data improvement efforts, organizing team efforts to complete prioritized tasks, and managing the efforts of network systems administrators to ensure uninterrupted flow of data in a manner that guarantees confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data thereby offering patient privacy in accordance with HIPAA regulations. I also participate in a limited capacity as a data analyst - reviewing data for conformance with underlying plausibility and continuity requirements as defined by the common data specifications.
