Research

Dr. Martin Michalowski is a tenured Associate Professor in the Population Health and Systems Cooperative Unit in the School of Nursing at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Michalowski's domain of expertise is Artificial Intelligence (AI) with research interests spanning several AI areas of particular importance to medical informatics including data integration, data modeling, machine learning, clinical decision support, and knowledge representation. Automated reasoning, including constraint-based approaches, data analytics using spatio-temporal analysis methods, planning and scheduling, and Bayesian-based machine learning for game playing, rounds out his research background.

His research philosophy in the area of medical informatics is centered on interdisciplinarity and brings advanced AI methods and approaches to clinical decision support, including the mitigation of computerized clinical practice guidelines for complex patients, and personalized medicine. Methodologically, Dr. Michalowski uses automated reasoning to provide clinicians and nurses with decision support at the point of care. He also applies problem modeling techniques to capture knowledge required for improving treatment decisions and uses big data analytics to support personalized medicine. He is also involved in the development of mobile educational tools for educators and students where he uses integrated automated reasoning, knowledge representation using ontologies, and human factors design.

Dr. Michalowski’s research has been funded by various government agencies including the NIH, DARPA, DoD, and the NSF, has been published in over 85 manuscripts across computer science and health informatics venues, has resulted in the co-founding of several companies, and has led to several issued patents. He also serves on the program committees for various informatics and computer science conferences, including AAAI, AMIA, IJCAI, ACMGIS, ICAPS, and ISWC and is a reviewer for a broad range of science journals. He is the organizing chair of the International Workshop on Health Intelligence that for the past eleven iterations has been held at the AAAI conference, in addition to organizing multiple symposia and workshops on artificial intelligence in healthcare. Dr. Michalowski recently served as co-chair of both the 2020 International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIME 2020) and for AIME 2022. He serves as a panel reviewer for NIH, NSF, Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI), and several international granting agencies.

Finally, Dr. Michalowski was awarded Senior Member status in the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) which recognizes AAAI members who have achieved significant accomplishments within the field of artificial intelligence. This is the second highest honor in AAAI, below AAAI Fellow. He was inducted into the Fellows of AMIA (American Medical Informatics Association), class of 2021. He also serves as a board member for the Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIME) society.
