What is i2b2?

Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside (i2b2) allows faculty, staff, and students to determine how many patients meet a given set of clinical criteria using de-identified electronic health record (EHR) data. Data sources include Epic, Allscripts/Eclipsys, Eagle, and the NYP Tumor Registry, for patients seen by Weill Cornell physicians in the outpatient setting and at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Queens.  

ITS recently made several improvements to the Weill Business Gateway (WBG) to enhance your ability to personalize your space. Now you can:

After a long week of orientation, the first-year medical students had a little friendly competition during the Samuel J. Wood Library’s annual Treasure Hunt. On Friday, August 24, nine teams of students scoured the library for clues using their newly-issued iPads and QR codes, each clue bringing them closer to the grand prize. The event helps new students learn about our extensive library resources and unwind from a hectic week.

The library has been holding the Treasure Hunt since 2006.

Our 3rd Annual Adobe August Month was a hit with the WCM community, bringing in 105 attendees who wanted to learn more about the Adobe Creative Cloud suite. Since we began offering licenses to WCM faculty, staff, and students three years ago, Adobe August has become a means to help beginners become familiar with the Creative Cloud interface, and understand the basics of simple graphic and web design, and video editing.

The Samuel J. Wood Library is pleased to announce the appointment of Nicole Milano as the new Head of the Medical Center Archives at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medicine.

As anyone who’s ever used an electronic health record (EHR) can attest, they weren’t built with research in mind. Entering data for patients can be difficult enough, but when it comes to getting data out for a study, many researchers throw their hands up and open Excel, where they start entering data by hand.

The new Weill Cornell Medicine app is now available for both iOS and Android devices! This mobile app puts Weill Cornell Connect in the patients’ hands, allowing them to easily manage their care at their convenience from anywhere they have an Internet connection.
