Project Leader, Health Information Environment
Michael Lawley is the project leader of the Health Information Environment research project at the CSIRO Australian e-Health Research Centre. This project is building novel applications to deal with the issues of accessing and analysing patient data from multiple data sources. These applications include database and data integration technology, use of clinical ontologies such as SNOMED CT for semantic integration and querying of data, analysis of complex data and the statistical analysis and pattern recognition of patterns in a patient’s health or disease journey.
Michael’s previous roles include two years as Senior Research Fellow with the Faculty of Information Technology at Queensland University of Technology, and twelve years at the Cooperative Research Centre for Enterprise Distributed Systems Technology (DSTC Pty Ltd), where he led the Pegamento Project’s work exploring model-driven development techniques and prototyping languages and tools to support model-driven development. He has extensive expertise in software architecture and distributed systems and was a core contributor to the DSTC’s work on the Object Management Group (OMG) Meta Object Facility 2.0 Query/View/Transformation (MOF QVT).
Michael did a Bachelor of Science with Honours at the University of Melbourne in Computer Science and then a PhD at Griffith University.
