Earlier this month Plainedge High School Seniors, Ashley Snyder and Safa Ghafoor competed over two rounds against 1000 students from across New York State. Safa earned 4th place in the New York State Science and Engineering Fair
Ashley Snyder wanted to explore the factors which might predict a patient being mistriaged in the emergency room. She found a dataset of anonymized patient data from an emergency room. She learned how to use machine learning – the same type used in large language AI models – to identify the patient complaints and diagnoses that were associated with mistriage. Ashley was able to demonstrate sex differences in complaints and diagnoses.
Safa Ghafoor wanted to examine whether reported disparities in organ transplants actually existed. Safa used a government database – OPTN – and built datasets organized by organ, sex, and race. She calculated a new measurement that normalized the resulting transplants to US Census data. Safa found that these new statistics showed that certain racial demographics received more or less organs relative to their proportion in the US population.
We are so proud of these two students for this outstanding accomplishment! #weareplainedge #plainedgeproud #comunity #education #learning
