Diego Martinez is an Assistant Professor of Industrial Engineering at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso. He is also an Associate Editor of IISE Transactions on Healthcare Systems Engineering. Prior joining PUCV, he was an Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine and Health Sciences Informatics at Johns Hopkins University. His research interests are in applications of machine learning and optimization, particularly to medicine and health policy, and to the challenges of human-centered artificial intelligence: How data- and model-driven decision support systems perform in clinical practice and how they should communicate with decision-makers. He has published over 50 papers in various disciplines, including engineering, medicine, and public health. Prof. Martinez received a BS in industrial engineering from the Universidad de La Frontera (Distinción Máxima), and a MSc and PhD in industrial engineering from the University of South Florida (Summa Cum Laude). He completed postdoctoral training at the Johns Hopkins Center for Systems Engineering in Health. In 2017, Prof. Martínez joined the Johns Hopkins faculty with the School of Medicine and the Whiting School of Engineering. In 2021, he returns to Chile as an as a professor at PUCV Engineering and an external professor at Johns Hopkins Medicine. Prof. Martinez is actively working on projects with the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Johns Hopkins Health System (JHHS). He is a member of the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS). He lectures and teaches clinical machine learning at PUCV Engineering and Johns Hopkins Medicine.
