Sang Bin You, PhD, RN

Sang Bin You, PhD, RN, is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Columbia University School of Nursing. Her PhD work at the University of Pennsylvania used machine learning to identify subgroups of older sepsis survivors based on patterns of coexisting risk factors and to examine differences in their characteristics and risk of rehospitalization.

Sang Bin's program of research focuses on improving recovery and care transitions for older adults with complex health needs following hospitalization. Her work examines how combinations of physical, cognitive, psychological, and contextual factors shape recovery after acute illness and influence the risk of adverse outcomes, including rehospitalization. She leverages diverse data sources, including electronic health records, text, video, and audio data, to characterize patients' multidimensional needs and identify opportunities to better align home health care with those needs.

Through data-driven and artificial intelligence-enabled approaches, including the integration of multimodal data, Sang Bin aims to develop person-centered, tailored care pathways that improve post-sepsis recovery and reduce avoidable rehospitalizations among older adults.
