Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Skylar Connor's research focuses on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in regulatory science, particularly for evaluating drug safety and toxicity. Connor has investigated the adaptability of AI for drug-induced liver injury (DILI) assessment and developed resources to facilitate AI-driven toxicity studies. This includes work on generating lists of drugs associated with renal injury to support new approach methodologies for nephrotoxicity evaluation and creating a database (DILIrank 2.0) for drug-induced liver injury risk based on FDA labeling and literature reviews. Connor also explores the readiness of AI tools like ChatGPT for specific research applications in organ-specific drug toxicity. Their work emphasizes the need for best practices and reproducible science to advance AI in real-world applications, with a specific interest in drug labeling and its role in AI-based extraction of safety information. Connor's scholarship includes 8 publications and has garnered 76 citations, with an h-index of 5. They have collaborated with Ting Li, Weida Tong, Leihong Wu, and Minjun Chen at the National Center for Toxicological Research.
