ABOUT MATTHEW PATTERSON

Data scientist and digital health expert with over 20 years of experience, I\'m passionate about algorithm development, validation, AI, and technology to transform patient outcomes — bridging academia and industry to create innovative solutions that make a real difference in people\'s lives.With a PhD and numerous peer-reviewed publications, my career spans rigorous academic research and practical industry application. Today, I conduct studies and perform validation and algorithm development using digital health tools for clinical research, leveraging wearable devices to monitor activity, sleep, and gait in diverse patient populations — including narcolepsy, atopic dermatitis, neurodegenerative diseases, and obesity. My work focuses on developing valid and reliable algorithms to deliver clinically relevant insights that accelerate therapeutic development and improve quality of life.As an expert in algorithm development, I excel in Python and R programming, AI/machine learning model development, and robust study design in the biomedical space to support validation and algorithm development. I have extensive experience navigating FDA 510(k) clearances for digital health tools, ensuring regulatory compliance while driving innovation from concept to deployment.I\'m driven by the potential of digital biomarkers to revolutionize clinical trials and personalized medicine. Let\'s connect if you\'re working on wearable tech, AI in healthcare, clinical research, or regulatory strategies for digital health tools — I\'d love to explore collaborations or share insights.Key expertise: Digital Health | Digital Health Tools | Data Science | Algorithm Development | Wearable Sensors | Machine Learning & AI | Clinical Trial Design | FDA Regulatory (510(k))| Python | R | Biomedical Data Science
