Teaching with case studies is a powerful and effective method for engaging Yale School of Public Health students in active learning and preparing them for professional environments, where critical thinking and decision-making in ambiguous situations are crucial.

The Community Alliance for Research and Engagement (CARE), co-housed at the Yale School of Public Health and Southern Connecticut State University—in partnership with the New Haven community—has been selected as one of five recipients of the Campus Compact’s 2026 Excellence in Community-Engaged Partnerships Awards.

In a new paper published in NEJM AI, Oikonomou, together with Rohan Khera, MD, MS and their colleagues from the Yale Cardiovascular Data Science (CarDS) Lab, shared a new AI-enabled clinical decision support tool, TARGET-AI, designed to help clinicians and their larger health systems use AI more effectively.
