Dr. Wilcox has broad experience in both applied and research informatics, both in academia and healthcare delivery organizations. He has worked in healthcare and research institutions across the country, focusing on the applications of information, data and technology to improving care. He is noted for his work with designing, developing and sustaining data systems for populations with research and electronic health record data; for design and implementation of health information systems; and for advancing methods in sustainability of data systems. He has done specific work in disadvantaged communities and in information systems and care structures supporting integrated mental health care.
