Research
Siriram's research interests fall into three streams
- Clinical Informatics: Computational techniques to support Algorithmic medicine and medical decision-making
- GuideView technology for authoring and presenting interactive structured multi-modal clinical guidelines for use by non-physician care providers ranging from astronauts in deep space missions to community health workers in developing countries. GuideView is cross-platform, executing on the web, standalone windows, PDAs, and cell phones.
- The medical algorithms project, at http://www.medal.org. (in association with John R Svirbely, MD), a web-based repository of over 11,000 scales, scores, formulae and other computational techniques in over 45 different areas of healthcare.
- VITA: Visualization techniques to enhance understanding of non-linearity in medical decision-making.
- Symbolic Systems Biology. Mathematical and computational modeling of biological processes and pathways.
- Signaling mechanisms in Multiple Organ Failure and other clinical consequences of trauma. (With Drs David W Mercer, Rosemary Kozar et al, Trauma Research Center, UTH Medical School)
- The morphoproteomic approach in cancer research (With Dr Robert Brown, UTH Department of Pathology)
- Pathway Logic in Neurobiology (With Douglas Baxter et al UTH Neurobiology, and Carolyn Talcott, SRI International)
- Pathway Logic in signal transduction (with Carolyn Talcott, SRI International)
- Cytoview. In silico representations of the morphology of biological cells (with Nagasuma Chandra and N Balakrishnan, Indian Inst. of Science, Bangalore)
- Computer Science: Queuing theoretic analysis and modeling of load sharing in distributed systems
