Qualitative, grounded-theory study of how urologists adopt (or abandon) ambient AI clinical documentation, based on interviews across adoption groups. Part of a larger KPSC system-wide evaluation.

A staged framework for operational AI adoption in healthcare

White paper proposing an evidence-graded framework for evaluating administrative and operational AI in health systems.

Trospium and incident dementia

Nested case-control study (KPSC, adults ≥55) examining whether cumulative trospium exposure is associated with dementia risk relative to other anticholinergics.

Decipher genomic classifier in prostate cancer

Cohort study of how genomic risk scores relate to treatment decisions, including racial and socioeconomic disparities in management of localized prostate cancer.

Prostate auto-segmentation pipeline

Open-source tool that detects imaging modality and segments the prostate from CT (TotalSegmentator) or MRI (nnU-Net v2).

PSA testing after a high-profile diagnosis

Difference-in-differences analysis of whether a widely publicized prostate cancer diagnosis changed PSA testing patterns in men over 80.

Retained ureteral stent tracker

Quality-improvement EMR dashboard that surfaces patients with overdue ureteral stents using existing data, to prevent retained-stent complications.

Infodemiology of Morgellons / delusions of parasitosis

Ecological study of the geographic distribution of public interest using digital-trace data (search trends) and population covariates.

Resident impact on operative time

Retrospective cohort of ~800 pediatric laparoscopic inguinal hernia repairs assessing how resident involvement affects operative duration.

"Actin' up": Actinomyces of the bladder dome

Case report of an infiltrative bladder-dome mass mimicking urachal adenocarcinoma that proved to be Actinomyces infection, allowing bladder preservation.

Brown-noise sleep device

Personal hardware project: a standalone ESP32-based brown-noise generator with a custom 3D-printed enclosure.
