Currently, he is investigating the possibilities of Big Data in neonatal medicine, in the Big Data for Small Babies project. First investigations are ongoing in the applied data analytic in medicine (ADAM) project. This project aims to build an early warning system and decision support tool for late-onset neonatal sepsis. Future research will be directed to bringing algorithms to clinical care in newborn medicine.
