Training in Biomedical Informatics is essential to meet the challenges of a globalized world. However, the development of postgraduate training and research programs in this area are scarce in Latin America. Through QUIPU: Andean Center for Training and research in Iformatics for Global Health, has developed the first Certificate and Master’s Program on Biomedical Informatics in the Andean Region. The aim of this article is to describe the experience of the program. To date, 51 students from Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela have participated; they come from health ministries, hospitals, universities, research centers, professional associations and private companies. Seventeen courses were offered with the participation of faculty from Argentina, Chile, Colombia, USA, Mexico and Peru. This program is already institutionalized at the School of Public Health and Administration from the Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia.
生物医学信息学培训对于应对全球化世界的挑战至关重要。然而,拉丁美洲在该领域的研究生培训和研究项目发展稀缺。通过基普(QUIPU):安第斯全球健康信息学培训与研究中心,安第斯地区首个生物医学信息学证书和硕士项目得以开发。本文旨在描述该项目的经验。迄今为止,来自秘鲁、智利、厄瓜多尔、哥伦比亚和委内瑞拉的51名学生参与其中;他们来自卫生部、医院、大学、研究中心、专业协会和私人公司。有来自阿根廷、智利、哥伦比亚、美国、墨西哥和秘鲁的教师参与,共开设了17门课程。该项目已在秘鲁卡耶塔诺·埃雷迪亚大学公共卫生与管理学院实现制度化。
