Stanford Division of Computational Medicine
Mark Musen MD, PhD
Division Chief & Professor of Medicine, Computational Medicine
Message from the Division Chief:
The Division of Computational Medicine in the Department of Medicine develops the information science, computational technology, and standards needed to advance modern healthcare and biomedical research efficiently and safely. Located at the Stanford Research Park, we create and apply computational methods for the management, communication, and analysis of complex biomedical data and knowledge. Our close connection with Stanford’s world-class healthcare delivery system, biomedical research community, and industry partners uniquely enables Computational Medicine to translate scientific discovery into tools that are used routinely in real-world settings.
