Jeffrey Michael Ferranti is a Professor at Duke University with primary appointments in Biostatistics & Bioinformatics and secondary appointments in Pediatrics and Family Medicine and Community Health. His work bridges clinical medicine and data science to develop informatics solutions for healthcare improvement.
His educational background includes:
- M.D. from McGill University, Canada (2000)
- Pediatric Internship & Residency at Duke University (2000-2003)
- Neonatology Fellowship at Duke University (2003-2006)
Ferranti's research focuses on translational biomedical informatics, with core expertise in healthcare data warehousing, pediatric informatics, and patient safety systems. He pioneers methodologies for health analytics, computerized physician order entry implementation, and healthcare interoperability standards. His work integrates emerging technologies in neonatology with robust data frameworks to enhance clinical decision-making and quality improvement initiatives across healthcare settings.
His publication record demonstrates consistent innovation in developing practical informatics tools like DISCERN for cohort recruitment and DEDUCE for clinical data querying. These systems address critical gaps in pediatric safety surveillance, medication dosing, and patient portal engagement, reflecting his commitment to translating data into actionable clinical insights.
Research funding includes:
- Pioneering Health Information Quality (NIH K99, 2012-2015)
- Automated Adverse Drug Event Detection (AHRQ, 2004-2008)
Within Duke's clinical ecosystem, Ferranti drives sustainable informatics infrastructure development, focusing on computerized adverse event surveillance, healthcare data standards, and implementation of web-based distributed computing systems to transform patient care quality and safety.
