Research interests

My research concentrates on the area of recording, processing and exchanging health data in the context of patient-centered inter-organizational medical documentations. In particular this includes the topics of standardization of electronic health records, analysis of medical documentations, and reuse of routine data for scientific purposes.

Techniques, methods & infrastructure

  • Modelling of health data
  • Application of eHealth standards such as HL7 CDA, FHIR, ISO/EN 13606, openEHR, IHE XDS
  • Analysis of health databases
