First Annual Research Day
On November 15, 2012, the Biomedical Research Institute (BRI) at Brigham and Women #39;s Hospital held its first Research Day. The event featured 150 poster presentations by leading BWH researchers on today #39;s hottest health topics such as obesity, healthy aging and personalized medicine. Dr. Robert C. Green was named the winner of the $100000 BRIght Futures Prize, after a unique competition in which nearly 6500 online votes from people across the globe determined the winning project. Dr. Green #39;s project explores the use of genome sequencing in newborns. The other BRIght Futures finalists included a project jointly led by Drs. Phil DeJager and Elizabeth Karlson, whose proposal focused on using genetics and electronic health records to treat multiple sclerosis and a project led by Dr. Robert Plenge, whose proposal focused on the use of technology to unravel the mysteries of the immune system.From:BrighamandwomensViews:3 0ratingsTime:03:47More inNonprofits Activism
