Vanderbilt University proposes a five-year renewal of its Biomedical Informatics Training Program. Begun in 2001, the program offers MS and PhD degrees in Biomedical Informatics, as well as nondegree postdoctoral and short-term training experiences. The program has experienced steady growth in high quality applicants and currently has more than 20 trainees, including 16 predoctoral and postdoctoral students funded by our NLM training grant, now in its fourth year. The Training Program's administrative home, the Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI), has likewise grown - infaculty, resources, andproductivity - to become widely regarded as among the top informatics programs nationally. The informatics-rich environments of the Vanderbilt University Medical Center and the VA Tennessee Valley Healthcare System provide provide "hands on" training experiences that are exemplary. The MS and PhD degree programs include a core curriculum of courses in biomedical informatics and the foundation disciplines of computer science, biomedicine, and research methodology. Degree-seeking students pursue concentrated study in one of several application domains, including clinical informatics and bioinformatics, and the emerging areas of clinical research and translational informatics and organizational informatics now under development. We continue to offer research-intensive nondegree postdoctoral fellowships. For the period 2007-2012, Vanderbilt requests a total of 16 full-time training positions (10 predoctoral and 6 postdoctoral) and 4 short- term training positions per year. Through the Meharry-Vanderbilt Alliance, we will continue to recruit Meharry students, graduates, and residents who seek training in biomedical informatics and expand recruitment efforts to underrepresented minorities from other institutions. Since its inception in 1991, the Vanderbilt Biomedical Informatics initiative has had one, key unifying idea: the best research and the best innovation arise from a deep understanding of the problems being addressed, and a commitment to creating tools and systems that serve real-world needs. Application and evaluation of these informatics innovations results in scalable tools that address today's most urgent challenges in healthcare delivery, biomedical research, and health professions education. Vanderbilt biomedical informatics graduates will become the next generation of scholars and innovators, leading the charge against these and other challenges not yet imagined.

范德比尔特大学提出了一个为期五年的更新其生物医学信息学培训计划。年开始 2001年，该计划提供生物医学信息学硕士和博士学位，以及非学位博士后 短期培训经验。该计划在高质量的申请人中稳步增长 目前有20多名培训生，其中包括16名博士前和博士后，由我们资助 NLM培训补助金，现已进入第四个年头。培训计划的行政总部， 生物医学信息学（DBMI），也同样增长-在教师，资源和生产力-成为 被广泛认为是全国顶尖的信息学项目之一。信息丰富的环境， 范德比尔特大学医学中心和弗吉尼亚州田纳西流域医疗保健系统提供 “动手”的培训经验是典范。硕士和博士学位课程包括一个核心 生物医学信息学课程和计算机科学基础学科课程， 生物医学和研究方法。攻读学位的学生在其中一所学校进行集中学习， 几个应用领域，包括临床信息学和生物信息学，以及 临床研究和翻译信息学和组织信息学正在发展中。我们 继续提供研究密集型非学位博士后奖学金。2007-2012年期间， 范德比尔特要求共16个全职培训职位（10个博士后和6个博士后）和4个短期- 每年的培训岗位。通过梅哈里-范德比尔特联盟，我们将继续招募梅哈里 寻求生物医学信息学培训并扩大招聘的学生，毕业生和居民 努力从其他机构中吸收代表性不足的少数群体。自1991年成立以来，范德比尔特 生物医学信息学倡议有一个关键的统一思想：最好的研究和最好的创新 产生于对正在解决的问题的深刻理解，以及致力于创建工具和 服务于现实世界需求的系统。这些信息学创新的应用和评价结果 可扩展的工具，以解决当今最紧迫的挑战，在医疗保健提供，生物医学研究， 卫生专业教育。范德比尔特生物医学信息学毕业生将成为下一代的 学者和创新者，领导对这些和其他挑战尚未想象。
