You are invited to submit a paper for consideration. All accepted papers
will be published in printed conference books/proceedings (ISBN) and will
also be made available online. The proceedings will be indexed in science
citation databases that track citation frequency/data. In addition, like
prior years, extended versions of selected papers (about 35%) of the
conference will appear in journals and edited research books (publishers
include: Springer, Elsevier, BMC, and others; a list that includes a
small subset of such books and journal special issues appear
Here)
; some of these books and journal special issues have already
received the top 25% downloads in their respective fields.
The conference is composed of a number of tracks, tutorials, sessions,
workshops, poster and panel discussions; all will be held simultaneously,
same location and dates: July 27-30, 2015.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to,
the following:
Prologue: Health Informatics and Medical Systems is an important
area that is at the intersection of information science, computer
science, social science, behavioral science and health care. This
field is mainly concerned with the resources, devices, and methods
required to optimize the acquisition, storage, retrieval, processing
and use of information in health and biomedicine. Health informatics
is driven by computers, information and communication systems. It is
a multi-disciplinary field that covers a wide spectrum of sub-fields.
It combines the problem solving skills of computer scientists with
health care professionals and health care givers. The list of topics
of interest that appears below is by no means exhaustive.
Information Technologies for Healthcare Delivery and Management
Health Data Acquisition, Management and Visualization
Healthcare Knowledge Management and Decision Support
Healthcare Modeling and Simulation
Data Analytics, Data Mining and Machine Learning
Health Information Systems
Clinical Informatics
Integrated Data Repository
Computational Health Informatics
Community Health Informatics
Informatics for Education & Research in Health and Medicine
Imaging Science
Collaboration tools such as social media, web apps, patient education
Healthcare Communication Networks and Environments
If you can read this text, it means you are not experiencing the Plone design at its best.
Plone makes heavy use of CSS, which means it is accessible to any internet browser,
but the design needs a
standards-compliant browser to look like we intended it.
Just so you know ;)
