Biomedical Informatics (BMI) a
multidisciplinary field stands at the crossroads of bioinformatics,
computational biology, translational informatics, imaging informatics,
medical informatics, and hospital informatics. It involves all aspects
of management, analysis, organization and sharing of information in
health care.
The Center for Biomedical Informatics focuses on Biomedical Informatics
(BMI) as an Academic Discipline and as a Facilitator
of a broad range of research projects and their application to
evidence-based changes in the treatment and management of patients. |
|
| BMI as an
Academic Discipline |
|
| Active areas of
BMI research include but are not limited to: |
|
 |
Natural Language Processing to
concept code medical documents and the biomedical research knowledge
base. |
|
|
Development of ontologies and
controlled vocabularies to annotate biomedical data sets. |
|
|
Algorithm creation/optimization and
hardware-based acceleration for computationally untenable problems. |
|
|
Integrating research and medical data
sets using systems biology approaches to make predictions in silico. |
|
|
| BMI as a
Facilitator |
|
Core applications are used to handle data
generated in the course of routine patient care, of patient-oriented
research, and by genome-wide profiling. These applications not only
store individual data sets but are syntactically and semantically
interoperable and enable seamless integration two or more sources.
These applications are used to: |
|
|
Access medical record information for
research purposes. |
|
|
Manage clinical studies information. |
|
|
Warehouse, catalog and annotate
biospecimens. |
|
|
Store profiling data from genome-wide
approaches. |
|
|
Analyze and visualize complex data
sets in order to facilitate in silico predictions that may then be
validated at the bench or through patient-oriented research. |
