This project involves two components: (1) preparation of Opal for the caregiver functionality in which patients will be able to share some or all of their medical data with their caregivers, and (2) general content preparation for Opal.

This research project is focused on using blockchain or an alternative solution to provide security for data donation using the Opal app.

It will put in place a demonstrative blockchain infrastructure, examining its challenges and drawbacks and proposing potential innovative solutions.

This research project is focused on preparing a pilot project for the donation of radiotherapy data by radiotherapy patients using the Opal patient portal.

This project is investigating ways in which patients can share their data and it will put in place the infrastructure for a demonstrative project.

This project involves an examination of the regulatory privacy and confidentiality compliance requirements for the use of a patient portal in various Canadian provinces.

Romina also works as a member of the quality assurance team, the market research team, and assisted with deploying Opal in numerous clinics within the Cedars Cancer Centre.

This project is focused on determining if patient-reported outcomes are better correlated with actual dose delivered than with planned dose in prostate cancer patients receiving radiotherapy.

The project will use daily cone-beam CT images to calculate the daily and total radiation dose delivered to patients, and the Opal app to collect their patient-reported outcomes.
