Keynote Speaker - Marylyn D. Ritchie, PhD, FACMI

Dr. Marylyn D. Ritchie is the inaugural Vice Dean of Artificial Intelligence and Computing for the Perelman School of Medicine, a Professor of Genetics, and Director of the Institute for Biomedical Informatics at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. She is also Co-Director of the Penn Medicine BioBank and Vice President of Research Informatics at the University of Pennsylvania Health System. Dr. Ritchie is an expert in translational bioinformatics, with a focus on developing, applying, and disseminating algorithms, methods, and tools integrating electronic health records (EHR) with genomics.

Dr. Ritchie is a Fellow of the American College of Medical Informatics and a member of the National Academy of Medicine. She has been recognized for paradigm-changing research demonstrating the utility of electronic health records for identifying clinical diseases or phenotypes that can be integrated with genomic data from biobanks for genomic medicine discovery and implementation science. Her lab develops and applies a breadth of translational bioinformatics approaches exploring the genome, the phenome, and the exposome to improve our understanding of the underlying architecture of common, complex diseases and advance toward the implementation of precision medicine.
