The infectious disease information available from DynaMed™, the clinical reference tool from EBSCO Information Services, is being enhanced by the addition of Dr. Sheila Mitsuma as a deputy editor. Mitsuma has significant clinical experience in the field at some of the top hospitals in Boston and her knowledge will now influence information used to treat patients worldwide.
Mitsuma is currently an associate physician at the Brigham and Women's Hospital where she attends on the transplant infectious disease service. She also retains a position as a consultant in medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital where her research focuses on immune control of viral infections in solid-organ transplant recipients. Mitsuma is a Diplomate with both the American Board of Internal Medicine and the American Board of Infectious Disease.
As the deputy editor, Mitsuma will oversee the infectious disease content for DynaMed, an evidence-based clinical decision support tool that is updated daily and provides doctors and other healthcare providers with clinically organized summaries at the point of care. She will supervise a team of medical writers, edit the infectious disease content and work with external specialists, peer-reviewers and writers to ensure that DynaMed provides the latest, most valid, relevant and convenient content and resources.
