What we study
The Marin Lab does clinical laboratory medicine research. A recent student project builds a decision-tree machine-learning algorithm to help doctors decide when to order testing for the clotting disorder TTP; its papers cover hemostasis and hemoglobin.

Leveraging machine learning to aid in the utilization of diagnostic testing in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
The project builds a decision-tree algorithm to help doctors decide when to order a blood test for TTP, a rare clotting disorder. In Phase 1 the model was 81% accurate on 104 patients; Phase 2 gathered 15,000+ data points from 518 patients to refine it.
