Sunit P. Jariwala
<p>Dr. Sunit P. Jariwala is the Medical Director of Digital Transformation of the Faculty Practice Group and the Director of Clinical & Research Innovation of the Department of Medicine at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Medical Center. He also serves as the Director of Allergy/Immunology Research for the Division of Allergy/Immunology and Co-Director of the Montefiore Asthma Center. Dr. Jariwala's clinical practice covers all aspects of allergy, asthma, and immunologic diseases in children and adults. Dr. Jariwala serves on the Editorial Board of the <em>Journal of Allergy and Asthma</em>. To date, Dr. Jariwala has published over 75 peer-reviewed articles in top-tier journals such as the <em>New England Journal of Medicine, Lancet Respiratory Medicine, Allergy, Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, </em>and <em>Applied Clinical Informatics. </em>He has received 22 clinical research grants (PI on 14 grants) for his work regarding novel information technology-based asthma education interventions for patients. Grant funding sources have included the NIH/NHLBI, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, Price Family Foundation, New York Regional Center for Diabetes Translation Research, and the Einstein Global Health Center. He recently served as the Chair of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology's Health Informatics, Technology and Education (HITE) Committee. He has also served as an NIH Study Section member for the Biomedical Computing and Health Informatics Study Section. </p>
<p>Dr. Jariwala has a long-standing interest in quality improvement and medical informatics, especially regarding asthma care delivery. He developed and pilot tested an adult version of the ASTHMAXcel mobile intervention for severe asthma patients. The ASTHMAXcel tool is available for smartphones and tablets, and provides guideline-based asthma education in the ambulatory and emergency department settings. This platform has been extended to other chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes and was also extended to the emergency department setting. ASTHMAXcel website - www.asthmaxcel.net</p>
