DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Columbia University proposes to continue its NLM-supported training program in medical informatics, initiated in 1992 and expanded in 1997. Our goal is to help to shape the evolving discipline of biomedical informatics by defining a rigorous, academically oriented training program that offers complementary exposures to real-world systems, both in clinical settings here at CPMC and in the biological sciences through the Columbia Genome Center and its nascent Center for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics. Our training program seeks to further the development of the field and the quality of future research by demonstrating to its students and to the biomedical community that medical informatics addresses fundamental issues of biomedical knowledge and information, their representation, and their biomedical application. We have accordingly developed a curriculum that assures that our graduates will be familiar with a broad range of pertinent topics in the field. Each trainee then selects an area of subspecialization within the field, with the established tracks being clinical informatics, public health informatics, imaging informatics, or bioinformatics. Our degrees generally require a minimum of two years for the M.A. and four years for the Ph.D., although most students take somewhat longer. We expect over 50 graduate students and post-doctoral trainees in our program in September 2001. Among our 47 graduates since approval of our degree program, we have graduated 4 PhD students, two of whom were NLM supported. We have had 15 graduates of our research masters program, 11 of whom were NLM supported. Our remaining 28 graduates have earned applied masters degrees, but none has been NLM supported. We have a large, internationally recognized faculty with consistent involvement in national medical informatics projects. Education for our trainees involves one-on-one experience with faculty members, working on research projects that in many cases are conceived by the students themselves. Almost all trainees are formal degree candidates and take coursework from within the Department and from the excellent resources available at Columbia University. The faculty, research staff and students form a critical mass for providing a provocative environment for the seminars, journal clubs, and information discussions. Our clinical information systems service responsibilities offer trainees opportunities to get first-hand exposure to and training on state-of-the-art clinical, educational, administrative, and research information systems.

描述（由申请人提供）： 哥伦比亚大学建议继续其NLM支持的培训计划， 医学信息学，始于1992年，并于1997年扩大。我们的目标是 通过定义生物医学信息学， 严格的，以学术为导向的培训计划，提供补充 暴露于现实世界的系统，无论是在临床设置在这里在CPMC和 通过哥伦比亚基因组中心及其新生的 计算生物学和生物信息学中心。我们的培训计划 寻求进一步发展的领域和未来的质量 通过向学生和生物医学界证明， 医学信息学研究生物医学知识的基本问题， 信息，其代表性，以及其生物医学应用。我们有 因此制定了一个课程，确保我们的毕业生将 熟悉该领域的广泛相关主题。每个学员 然后在该领域内选择一个细分领域， 已建立的轨道是临床信息学，公共卫生信息学， 成像信息学或生物信息学。我们的学位通常需要一个 硕士学位至少两年四年读博士虽然大多数 学生需要更长的时间。 我们预计将有50多名研究生和博士后实习生参加我们的项目 在2001年9月。在我们的47名毕业生，因为我们的学位批准 计划，我们已经毕业4博士生，其中两人是NLM支持。我们 我有15名研究硕士毕业生，其中11人是NLM supported.我们剩下的28名毕业生获得了应用硕士学位， 没有一个是NLM支持的。我们有一个国际公认的 教师与国家医疗信息学项目的一贯参与。 我们的学员教育包括与教师一对一的经验 成员们致力于研究项目，这些项目在许多情况下是由 学生自己。几乎所有学员都是正式学位候选人， 从部门内的课程，并从优秀的资源 可在哥伦比亚大学获得。教职员工、研究人员和学生 形成一个临界质量，为研讨会提供一个激发性的环境， 期刊俱乐部和信息讨论。我们的临床信息系统 服务职责为学员提供了获得第一手资料的机会 接触和培训最先进的临床，教育， 行政和研究信息系统。
