Emily E. Moin

Dr. Emily E. Moin is a senior fellow in the Division of Pulmonary, Allergy, and Critical Care and a postdoctoral researcher at the PAIR Center. Clinically, she cares for critically ill patients in the intensive care unit, and her academic work combines clinical epidemiology, machine learning, and bioethics to improve outcomes and decision-making for patients with serious illness.

At the PAIR Center, Dr. Moin applies advanced quantitative methods to large-scale electronic health records and high-frequency physiologic data to improve measurement, understand treatment-effect heterogeneity, and study ICU outcomes. She has examined national trends in life-support utilization and mortality (published in JAMA), investigated disparities in palliative care access, and developed approaches to analyzing complex physiologic signals such as ventilator waveforms. In parallel, her work in bioethics explores how evidence, context, and emerging technologies shape decision-making in critical care. Through these projects, she seeks to inform more effective and ethically grounded models of ICU care. Dr. Moin is a recipient of the Measey Physician Scientist Fellowship from the Perelman School of Medicine, and has been invited to present her research to critical care groups at peer institutions and lectures medical and graduate students at Penn on topics in medical ethics.

Dr. Moin earned a BA in Mathematics from Amherst College, an MD and Master of Bioethics from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, completed residency in Internal Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital, and received a Master of Science in Clinical Epidemiology from Penn in 2025.
