Katherine E. Goodman, JD, PhD is an assistant professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Public Health at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Her research interests include Gram-negative antimicrobial resistance in inpatient settings, the development of evidence-based healthcare epidemiology and antimicrobial stewardship policies, and applying machine learning and other prediction model approaches to healthcare epidemiology questions using ‘Big Data.’ An increasing component of her work encompasses use of large claims databases and the application of novel machine learning and informatics techniques, primarily natural language processing, to electronic health record data. Prior to her doctoral studies, she was a practicing FDA law attorney in Washington, D.C., and the intersection of law and public health remains an important research interest.
