FDA Grand Rounds: Structuring Unstructured Data: Using new data sources to understand the needs of underserved populations
May 9, 2019
WO Bldg 2: 2047

Activity Coordinator:
Devin Thomas (Devin.Thomas@fda.hhs.gov)
Series Description

The FDA Grand Rounds is webcast monthly to highlight cutting-edge research underway across the agency and its impact on protecting and advancing public health. Each session features an FDA scientist presenting on a key public health challenge and how FDA is applying science to its regulatory activities.

Lecture Description
How can unstructured FDA archival data and social media be structured to consistently and comprehensively capture the patient's voice? Findings: In this qualitative analysis of FDA archival data and social media associated with public and patient comments about opioid use disorder and pulmonary arterial hypertension, themes and topics were identified to structure data sources and help in understanding of the patients' concerns. Meaning: Collectively, these findings suggest opportunities to use new data sources to increase the comprehensive understanding of the patient's voice, including increasing confidence in the data that the FDA traditionally collects, and reaching voices of vulnerable populations.
