An elected member of the National Academy of Medicine, Dr. Chin is a renowned cancer genomic scientist and a leader in application of technologies, AI/ML and big data in medicine. She conducted research in cancer genomics and cancer biology at Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School, served on the executive subcommittee of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and co-led development of the Firehose pipeline at the Broad Institute. As founding chair of the Department of Genomic Medicine at MD Anderson Cancer Center, she launched initiatives to develop cross-cutting platform capabilities with technologies, data and analytics, including the APOLLO platform to systematize workflows for patient-oriented research, the Translational Research Accelerator (TRA) to integrate longitudinal clinical and research data for precision medicine, and the Oncology Expert Advisor to apply AI/ML for democratization of evidence-based care. Later, as Chief Innovation Officer of the University of Texas System, Dr. Chin created the Institute for Health Transformation to explore public-private partnerships and business strategies for establishing a health data ecosystem and integrating data and technologies in care delivery, especially for the underserved. She developed REDI (Real-world Education, early Detection and Intervention), a 21st century version of PCMH (Patient-Centered Medical Home), and implemented it in one of the poorest communities in South Texas (Project DOC) to demonstrate technology-enabled chronic disease management in a vulnerable population. More recently, Dr. Chin co-founded Apricity Health to develop prescription digital therapeutics to bring real-time data and subspecialty expertise to points-of-care, enabling precision and personalization in management of patients undergoing treatment for serious diseases, starting with cancer immunotherapy (IO).
