Imaging and Clinical Informatics are domains of biomedical informatics. Imaging Informatics topics are often not covered in depth in most Clinical Informatics fellowships. While dedicated Imaging Info...
We compared published curricula and test content between Clinical and Imaging Informatics fellowship programs. We then highlighted differences between training programs and identified overlapping topi...
Published consensus curricula and topics were extracted for each specialty. Two informaticists compared topics as shared or not shared between specialties. Next, test content outlines were compared fo...
There were 139 Clinical Informatics topics compared with 97 Imaging Informatics topics. Of the 139 Clinical Informatics topics, 115 (83%) were covered in the Imaging Informatics curriculum. Of the 97 ...
Imaging Informatics and Clinical Informatics fellowship programs have some overlap with areas unique to each. Our review may help guide those seeking informatics education and potential certification....
The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) has revolutionized the landscape of Alzheimer's research through its Informatics Core, which has facilitated unprecedented data standardization a...
Scholars from the health and medical sciences have recently proposed the term social informatics (SI) as a new scientific subfield of health informatics (HI). However, SI is not a new academic concept...
Applied health informatics infrastructure is a requirement for learning health systems and it is imperative that we train a workforce that can support this infrastructure. Our department offers course...
In this paper, we discuss the three-phase evaluation of our program and include the survey we developed to identify the skills and knowledge base of our faculty....
We show how this assessment allowed us to identify gaps and develop strategies for program expansion....
A focus on workforce development can help to guide and focus curricular review in an interdisciplinary graduate program....
The specialization of different urban sectors, theories, and technologies and their confluence in city development have led to a greatly accelerated growth in urban informatics, the transdisciplinary ...
Health informatics (HI) is a growing field of study, yet sparse data is available on the characteristics of undergraduate health informatics programs in the United States (U.S.). The lack of a central...
The objective of this study was to perform an environment scan of colleges and universities within the U.S. and Puerto Rico to identify undergraduate programs in HI including majors, minors, and under...
Potential institutions offering HI programs were identified from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), Commission for Accreditation of Health Informatics and Health Information Manageme...
83 HI programs were identified from 60 institutions and 26 states. The primary finding of this environment scan was that inconsistencies exist among U.S. HI undergraduate programs including variations...
This environment scan was a first step in exploring the characteristics of undergraduate HI programs within the U.S. Further research is needed on the curricular similarities and differences among the...
We developed and implemented a novel internal clinical informatics curriculum for the UCI Fellowship Program. We sought to innovate the program's educational approach by transitioning from an external...
To introduce the 2023 International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA) Yearbook by the editors....
The editorial provides an introduction and overview to the 2023 IMIA Yearbook where the special topic is "Informatics for One Health". The special topic, survey papers and some best papers are discuss...
IMIA Yearbook 2023 provides many perspectives on a relatively new topic called "One Digital Health". The subject is vast, and includes the use of digital technologies to promote the well-being of peop...
The theme of "Informatics for One Health" is relatively new but the editors of the IMIA Yearbook have presented excellent and thought-provoking work for biomedical informatics in 2023....
To summarize key contributions to current research in the field of Clinical Research Informatics (CRI) and to select best papers published in 2021....
Using PubMed, we did a bibliographic search using a combination of MeSH descriptors and free-text terms on CRI, followed by a double-blind review in order to select a list of candidate best papers to ...
Among the 1,096 papers (published in 2021) returned by the search and in the scope of the various areas of CRI, the full review process selected three best papers. The first best paper describes an op...
The COVID-19 pandemic is still significantly stimulating research efforts in the CRI field to improve the process deeply and widely for conducting real-world studies as well as for optimizing clinical...
The recent COVID-19 pandemic has hit humanity very hard in ways rarely observed before. In this digitally connected world, the health informatics and investigation domains (both public and private) la...
