This paper presents the development of medical informatics education during the years from the establishment of the International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA) until today.
A search in the literature was performed using search engines and appropriate keywords as well as a manual selection of papers. The search covered English language papers and was limited to search on papers title and abstract only.
The aggregated papers were analyzed on the basis of the subject area, origin, time span, and curriculum development, and conclusions were drawn.
From the results, it is evident that IMIA has played a major role in comparing and integrating the Biomedical and Health Informatics educational efforts across the different levels of education and the regional distribution of educators and institutions. A large selection of references is presented facilitating future work on the field of education in biomedical and health informatics.
本文介绍了从国际医学信息学协会(IMIA)成立至今这些年医学信息学教育的发展情况。
使用搜索引擎和适当的关键词在文献中进行检索,并人工挑选论文。检索范围涵盖英文论文,且仅限于在论文标题和摘要中进行检索。
根据主题领域、来源、时间跨度和课程发展对汇总的论文进行分析,并得出结论。
从结果来看,很明显IMIA在比较和整合不同教育层次以及教育工作者和机构的区域分布方面的生物医学和健康信息学教育工作中发挥了重要作用。提供了大量参考文献,便于未来在生物医学和健康信息学教育领域开展工作。
