Professional Statement

Javad Razjouyan, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor (tenure track) of medicine for Health Services Research and the Institute for Clinical & Translational Research (ICTR) at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM). He is also a health research scientist at Implementation Science & Innovation Core, Center for Innovations in Quality, Effectiveness and Safety (IQuESt) at Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center. He is faculty member of the Big Data-Scientist Training Enhancement Program (BD-STEP) of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and he is adjunct Assistant Professor of Epidemiology at UTHealth Houston School of Public Health.
Dr. Razjouyan serving as the Director of Artificial Intelligence in Health Lab (AIH-Lab) at BCM and co-director of BD-STEP advanced fellowship program, Houston site.
He has published more than 40 scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals, more than 50 conference proceedings or abstracts, three filled patents, and a textbook for undergraduate students in biomedical engineering. He received a young investigator award from the Gerontological Society of America conference in 2014 as digital biomarker development. He also won a junior investigator travel award at the American Heart Association - Quality of Care & Outcome Research 2019 as he developed an EMR based frailty index by machine learning techniques. He mentored three advanced fellows at the BD-STEP program on used of EMR and performing advanced machine learning algorithms. Currently, He is mentoring three advanced post-doctoral fellows at the AIH-lab. His post-doctoral fellows use artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) algorithms, and natural language processing (NLP) tools on various medical fields such as sleep medicine, psychology, dementia, heart failure, and frailty.
