Dr. Engelhard is an Assistant Professor of Biostatistics & Bioinformatics at Duke University School of Medicine. His research focuses on the development and application of trustworthy AI methods for large, longitudinal clinical datasets, including electronic health records and digital health data. This work emphasizes clinical risk surveillance methods that can accurately quantify uncertainty, incorporate patient and provider preferences, and promote causal discovery.
Dr. Engelhard is PI of NIMH-funded research to develop AI-based clinical decision support (AI-CDS) for early autism and ADHD surveillance (K01MH127309, PI Engelhard), and to validate and disseminate AI-CDS for early identification of mental health distress (UF1MH141631, MPI Engelhard). He has worked with clinical collaborators across a range of specialties including psychiatry, pediatrics, medicine, and neurology, to translate novel AI methodologies into clinical settings and rigorously evaluate their performance and fairness.
