David P. Stonko
Hometown: Manchester, Maryland
Medical School: Vanderbilt University School of Medicine
Surgical Interest: Surgical Critical Care, Trauma and Acute Care Surgery
Researching: My primary research interest is at the intersection of surgical sciences and applied mathematics: to build artificial intelligence/machine learning or statistical algorithms for prognostication and outcomes prediction across the surgical sciences. I also hope to use math to address needs in basic science, where certain problems may be amenable to mathematical modeling such as in trauma and surgical critical care with coagulopathy and sepsis.
