Nathaniel Hupert, MD, MPH, is practicing clinician and public health researcher focusing on healthcare processes and emergency response logistics. Using a variety of methods including Process Mining and Discrete Event Simulation, his research seeks to improve the effectiveness of care delivery in both conventional and crisis settings. Since September 2000, he has collaborated with local, State, Federal, and international public health officials in advancing clinical and health system preparedness for bioterrorism and other public health emergencies. Several of Dr. Hupert's computer models of mass antibiotic dispensing and hospital surge capacity have been widely downloaded and used by public health professionals worldwide, notably the BERM Point-of-Dispensing staffing model and the AHRQ Surge Model. He led the development of two U.S. healthcare planning documents, the "Community Guide for Public Health Preparedness" (2004) and the "Guidebook for Hospital Preparedness Exercises" (2010).
