Overall Research Project Description The research in the eHealth Lab directed by Dr. Zhe He is meticulously designed to foster health education, empower patient self-management, enhance the efficiency of healthcare delivery, and elevate the standards of clinical research by leveraging the power of big health data. Employing user-centered and participatory approaches, we are dedicated to developing AI-powered health delivery platforms and tools that are as innovative as they are inclusive. Our machine learning and natural language processing expertise enables us to extract actionable insights from complex healthcare systems, thereby informing medical decision-making and exploring the nuances of clinical trial participation. Research areas include: Our specialized research areas span across Biomedical and Health Informatics, Clinical Research Informatics, Consumer Health Informatics, as well as Knowledge Representation and Biomedical Ontologies. We are also deeply engaged in advancing the fields of Biomedical Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning, and Health Data Analytics with a multidisciplinary approach.
Research Tasks Assist with on-going biomedical and health informatics projects: (1) literature review; (2) data collection; (3) annotation; (4) preparing manuscripts for academic journals and conferences.
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Python (recommended)
MS Excel (required)

Mentoring Philosophy I believe as a mentor, students’ success is my success. I have been closely supervising students at all levels in the iSchool and other departments. In iSchool, new faculty are not eligible to supervise doctoral students until after they have undergone a successful third year review. Currently, I am the chair of the supervisory committee of two doctoral students and a member of supervisory committees of 18 doctoral students. My supervision of graduate student research through directed independent studies and research collaborations has resulted in 14 journal articles (e.g., JAMIA, JMIR, JBI, JMIR), 17 conference papers (e.g., AMIA, BIBM, MEDINFO), and 9 conference posters (e.g., ASIST, AMIA, ICHI, MEDINFO). In addition, I have mentored 9 undergraduate students in many different majors including Computer Science, Pre-med, Chemistry, and Biology, to name a few, through FSU’s Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP). My UROP mentees have presented their research projects in FSU’s Undergraduate Research Symposium and Florida Undergraduate Research Conference (FURC).
