DESCRIPTION:" The Observer Project: Bringing Biomedical Researchers into t
 he Room Where It Happens" by Kevin B. Johnson\, MD\, MS - David L. Cohen 
 University Professor of Biomedical Informatics\, Computer Science\, Pedia
 trics\, and Science Communication at the University of Pennsylvania. Abst
 ract: Primary care is the front door of the American healthcare system an
 d one of its least studied environments. Despite decades of investment in
  electronic health records\, clinical decision support\, and administrati
 ve automation\, the outpatient visit itself remains largely a black box. 
 What physicians and patients actually say to one another\, how attention 
 shifts during documentation\, whether an agenda gets addressed or quietly
  abandoned: these phenomena are rarely captured\, and almost never studie
 d at scale. The Observer Project is an effort to change that. Observer is
  a multimodal repository of primary care encounters\, combining synchroni
 zed audio\, video\, and structured clinical data collected under informed
  consent from patients and clinicians across diverse practice settings. T
 he repository is designed as an open research resource\, enabling investi
 gators across medicine\, engineering\, linguistics\, and the social scien
 ces to study ambulatory care as it is actually practiced. This presentati
 on describes the methodological and ethical infrastructure required to bu
 ild Observer\, including automated de-identification pipelines for clinic
 al video and speech\, multistakeholder review processes\, and data govern
 ance frameworks designed to support broad research access. It also presen
 ts early findings from experiments using Observer data to develop and eva
 luate tools for clinical care\, including pre-visit history collection\, 
 ambient documentation\, real-time agenda management\, and passive screeni
 ng for cognitive impairment. The path to trustworthy\, equitable clinical
  AI runs directly through the exam room. Getting there requires looking c
 arefully at what happens inside it. Bio: Kevin B. Johnson\, MD\, MS is th
 e David L. Cohen University Professor of Biomedical Informatics\, Compute
 r Science\, Pediatrics\, and Science Communication at the University of P
 ennsylvania\, and Vice President for Applied Clinical Informatics at Penn
  Medicine. He earned his MD from Johns Hopkins University and an MS in Me
 dical Informatics from Stanford University. Prior to joining Penn\, Dr. J
 ohnson served as Chair of Biomedical Informatics and Chief Informatics Of
 ficer at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. An internationally recogni
 zed leader in clinical informatics\, Dr. Johnson pioneered the use of tex
 t messaging for behavior change and developed early electronic documentat
 ion and e-prescribing systems that transformed care delivery. At Penn\, h
 e directs the Artificial Intelligence for Ambulatory Care Innovation (AI4
 AI) lab\, advancing AI to reimagine the clinical encounter. Dr. Johnson h
 as authored over 200 publications and is a member of the National Academy
  of Medicine and a fellow of the American College of Medical Informatics\
 , the International Academy of Health Sciences Informatics\, and the Amer
 ican Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering. He also produces d
 ocumentaries and a podcast to engage public audiences in informatics and 
 STEMM. CME accredited seminar. Information for claiming credit will be pr
 ovided at the start of the session.\n\nSpeaker:\nKevin B. Johnson\, MD\,
