1. Changes in Psychiatric Diagnosis Associated With SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Predicting the Development of New Psychiatric Illness in COVID Patients by Using Machine Learning Approach: A Study Using the US National COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C)

Summary: This research, presented as part of my thesis at West Virginia University, explores the association between COVID-19 and the increased incidence of schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Using a large dataset from the U.S. National COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C), the study identifies critical patterns linking viral infection to psychiatric conditions, offering new insights into the broader mental health impacts of the pandemic. The findings contribute to a growing body of knowledge on COVID-19’s long-term effects on mental health.
