Over the years, electronic health records (EHRs) have revolutionized medical practice, digitizing patient data and streamlining care. But the current systems are not well suited to support collection of real-world data or the tracking of longitudinal outcomes across patient populations. This is particularly true for hematopoietic stem cell transplant and cellular therapies.

Our special guest, Dr. Wayne Liang is a leader in the stem cell transplant and cell therapy informatics field. Wayne is Director of Informatics Education and Outreach at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, he is also a pediatric hematologist/oncologist at Aflac Cancer & Blood Disorders Center, and Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Emory University.
