also learn more about this debilitating disease so better treatments can be developed.” The ongoing study Research Outsmarts Endometriosis, or ROSE, is open to women with or without endometriosis.

time doctors and nurses spend inputting new information and retrieving past information for a patient. Oppenheim said about 50 percent of a physician’s day is spent on a computer, eating away at time that could be spent for personal interactions with patients. EMRBot would allow physicians and nurses to interact with electronic medical records with their voice as well as use natural language text messages and an adaptive user interface with chatbots. “EMRBot will completely revolutionize how clinicians interact with patient data and will restore the human ‘face-to-face’ interaction that electronic health records have slowly eroded,” Anantraman said. Two additional teams received $100,000 and the remaining three finalists will work with internal resources at Northwell over the next year to advance their ideas and potentially qualify as a finalist for next year’s competition.

“Nothing, nothing,” Singh replied. Venditto’s attorneys, meanwhile, tried to get a mistrial declared for their client last week. A federal judge rejected the request, according! to Newsday, but did agree to strike out several questions and answers from the record. The answers came from testimony given last week by independent auditor! Donald Hoffman and! municipal adviser Christine Crowley regarding Oyster Bay’s loan guarantee for Singh. “Don’t hold your breath for a mistrial,” U.S. District Judge Joan M. Azrack told Venditto’s attorneys, according to Newsday. Azrack also rejected Monday a final effort by the defense lawyers to have the charges against their clients dismissed, with Azrack saying there was “more than sufficient evidence” for the case to go to the jury. Closing statements by attorneys for Venditto and Linda Mangano were made on Wednesday.
