To clarify challenges and research topics for informatics in health and to describe new approaches for interdisciplinary collaboration and education.
Research challenges and possible solutions were elaborated by scientists of two universities using an interdisciplinary approach, in a series of meetings over several months.
In order to translate scientific results from bench to bedside and further into an evidence-based and efficient health system, intensive collaboration is needed between experts from medicine, biology, informatics, engineering, public health, as well as social and economic sciences. Research challenges can be attributed to four areas: bioinformatics and systems biology, biomedical engineering and informatics, health informatics and individual healthcare, and public health informatics. In order to bridge existing gaps between different disciplines and cultures, we suggest focusing on interdisciplinary education, taking an integrative approach and starting interdisciplinary practice at early stages of education.
阐明健康信息学中的挑战和研究课题,并描述跨学科合作与教育的新方法。
两所大学的科学家采用跨学科方法,在数月内召开的一系列会议上详细阐述了研究挑战和可能的解决方案。
为了将科学成果从实验室转化到临床应用,并进一步应用于基于证据且高效的卫生系统,医学、生物学、信息学、工程学、公共卫生以及社会和经济科学领域的专家之间需要密切合作。研究挑战可归因于四个领域:生物信息学与系统生物学、生物医学工程与信息学、健康信息学与个人医疗保健、公共卫生信息学。为了弥合不同学科和文化之间现有的差距,我们建议专注于跨学科教育,采取综合方法,并在教育的早期阶段开展跨学科实践。
