  1. Lessons from Biomedical Informatics for Nutrition Informatics James J. Cimino, M.D. Laboratory for Informatics Development NIH Clinical Center

  2. Biomedical Informatics is...

  3. Biomedical Informatics is... “The field that concerns itself with the cognitive, information processing and communication tasks of medical practice, education and research, including the information science and the technology to support these tasks.” Greenes RA. Shortliffe EH. JAMA 1990 Feb 23; 263(8):1114-20.

  4. Biomedical Informatics is... • The art and science of organizing knowledge of human health and disease, and making it useful for problem solving

  5. The Spectrum of Problem Solving • Science base of biology and medicine • Collection and interpretation of signals • Application of science and data in clinical care • Extension of clinical care to populations

  6. What’s in a Name? • Bioinformatics • Really biomolecular informatics • Medical informatics • Really clinical informatics • Biomedical informatics • Covers both and more

  7. Technologies • Computers and storage • Graphical user interfaces • Signal processing • Artificial intelligence • Telecommunications • Internet and the World Wide Web • Electronic knowledge resources

  8. Concepts • Evidence-based practice • Standards for naming and coding • User interface design for biomedical and healthcare professionals • Expert systems • Decision analysis

  9. Domains • Bioinformatics • Clinical information systems • Computer assisted learning • Public health information systems • Electronic knowledge resources • Nutrition

  10. Data, Information and Knowledge Knowledge Resources Health Record Research Expert System Guidelines
