Bioinformatics Symposium: Computer-based Medical Instrumentation and Information Technologies, Hartford, Connecticut, October 12, 2001

0124653Bronzino生物信息学是一门广泛的科学学科，涉及使用计算机技术开发新的医疗（虚拟）仪器、创建和保护计算机化患者记录、增强医学成像系统的操作、利用人工智能技术（即专家系统、神经网络等）开发决策支持系统、创建高效且有效的数据挖掘和建模方法以及在许多医疗应用中使用机器人技术。这个领域很广阔，很难涵盖所有主题。因此，本次研讨会的重点是医疗系统中基于计算机的仪器。生物信息学研讨会的主要目标是：介绍虚拟仪器、医学成像和存储以及决策支持系统领域正在进行的新研究和开发工作。介绍这些领域成功的学术/工业合作的例子。为生物医学工程、计算机科学和健康科学的学生提供更多了解生物信息学领域的机会。来自生物信息学涉及的各个学科的学术和工业专业人士聚集在一起研讨会和相关技术博览会将促进生物信息学领域内研究和开发工作的跨学科和机构间合作。生物信息学研讨会和相关技术博览会为促进生物医学工程这一新兴领域的创新发展提供了一个及时的机会。该奖项为印刷会议记录的出版提供支持。

0124653BronzinoBioinformatics is a scientifically broad discipline involving the use of computer technology to develop new medical (virtual) instruments, create and protect computerized patient records, enhance the operation of medical imaging systems, utilize artificial intelligence techniques (i.e. expert systems, neural networks, etc.) to develop decision support systems, create efficient and effective data mining and modeling approaches, and use robotics in a host of medical applications. This field is vast and it is difficult to cover all of the topics. Therefore, the Symposium is to focus on computer-based instrumentation in medical systems. The primary objectives of the Bioinformatics Symposium are:Present insights into the new research and development efforts underway in virtual instrumentation, medical imaging and storage, and decision support systems.Present examples of successful academic/industrial collaborations in these areas.Provide an opportunity for students in biomedical engineering, computer science and health sciences to learn more about the field of Bioinformatics.The convening of academic and industrial professionals from the various disciplines involved in Bioinformatics at the Symposium and associated Technology Fair will facilitate interdisciplinary and inter-institutional collaborations in research and development efforts within the realm of Bioinformatics. The Bioinformatics Symposium and associated Technology Fair offers a timely opportunity to facilitate the development of innovations in this emerging area of biomedical engineering. This award provides support for the publication of printed proceedings of the meeting.
