Two ºÙºÙÊÓƵ initiatives were among 10 efforts named on July 19 as award winners of UC's Larry L. Sautter Award for Innovation in Information Technology.
ºÙºÙÊÓƵ' Cohort Discovery earned a golden award for "innovation in information technology." Developed by the UC Davis Health System, this project allows researchers to more efficiently identify research subjects for clinical trials using patient databases while adhering to patient privacy regulations.
The PhysicianConnect initiative, also launched by the UC Davis Health System, was recognized with an honorable mention award. This tool gives referring physicians the ability to better access patient information.
All Sautter recipients were honored at the annual UC Computing Services Conference on July 19 at UCLA. Other recipents of gold or silver awards this year hailed from UC San Diego, UC Irvine, UC Riverside and the UC Office of the President.
The systemwide award recognizes information technology innovations that advance UC's mission of teaching, research, public service and patient care, or that improve administrative processes. For further details, see.
