Integrating EHR data with genomic data

Question

[Gene_MMP8]

I am trying to integrate EHR based clinical data for heart attacks with genomics data. Is there a way to do the same? Can I integrate gene expression data with clinical data for heart attack patients in-silico?

Any algorithm for adverse drug event detection?

There is neither a R package nor any standardised procedure for this, if that is what you are looking for. Your chosen tag of sequencing is neither that suitable for the question.

Try to do a little research / background reading on this subject. Generally, integrating clinical data with omics data can be done via correlation analysis, regression modeling, clustering, and many more techniques. With EHR data, it may be the same; however, some EHR data may require natural language processing techniques, too.

Good luck
