Looking For A Reference To Access MIMIC-IV On PhysioNet (independent Researcher)

Hi everyone,
I’m an independent researcher working on a non-commercial machine learning + NLP project related to patient safety. My main goal is to explore how clinical notes can be used to identify or even predict preventable medical errors, such as medication issues, documentation mistakes, or delayed interventions.

I’m especially interested in the early detection of patterns that could support error prevention, not just classification.

I’ve already completed the required CITI “Data or Specimens Only Research” ethics training.

Now I just need a reference to confirm my identity and seriousness. This only involves responding to a short email from PhysioNet.

If you’re a researcher or professional familiar with MIMIC or medical NLP and would be willing to vouch for me, I’d be incredibly grateful. I’d be happy to explain my approach in more detail via DM.

Thanks in advance 🙂
