Biomedical informatics spans a research space essential in a number of areas of life sciences and healthcare. The demand for well-trained research scientists in this area is exploding, although there is real need for independent research and informatics tool development, there is also an increasing emphasis on interdisciplinary research, where biomedical informaticians play a central role. We propose a combined pre- doctoral (6 positions) and post-doctoral (6 positions) research training program that prepares research fellows to become leaders in the academic and research biomedical informatics community and valuable contributors to interdisciplinary biomedical research problems. The goal of the biomedical informatics research training (BIRT) program at the University of Missouri- Columbia (MU) is to provide strong foundational training in informatics theory and methodology, build upon the fundamentals of biological and computational sciences, and prepare research fellows to assume leadership roles working on important problems in life scienes, healthcare, bioinformatics, and computational biology. MU has a strong history of biomedical informatics research training, but with implementaion of a recent planned expansion of informatics resources, our campus research community is now better positioned than ever before to be leaders in biomedical informatics research training and further strengthen life sciences and healthcare research. The creation of the MU Informatics Institute (MUM) brings together biomedical : informatics researchersfrom the campus, fully integrates faculty resources of 2 strong departments, Computer Science and Health Management and Informatics, and provides a structure for leveraging outstanding resources. The MUII will manage the PhD in Informatics program, as well as multidiscipliriary informatics research faculty and research trainees.

生物医学信息学跨越了生命科学的许多领域中必不可少的研究空间， 健康护理对这一领域训练有素的研究科学家的需求正在爆炸式增长，尽管在这一领域存在真实的 需要独立的研究和信息学工具的开发，也越来越强调 跨学科研究，其中生物医学信息学家发挥核心作用。我们提出了一个联合的前- 博士（6个职位）和博士后（6个职位）研究培训计划，准备研究 研究员成为学术和研究生物医学信息学界的领导者， 跨学科生物医学研究问题的贡献者。 密苏里州大学生物医学信息学研究培训（BIRT）项目的目标是- 哥伦比亚大学（MU）将提供信息学理论和方法方面的强有力的基础培训， 生物和计算科学的基础知识，并准备研究人员承担 领导角色，致力于生命科学、医疗保健、生物信息学和计算领域的重要问题 生物学 MU在生物医学信息学研究培训方面有着悠久的历史，但随着最近一项 计划扩大信息学资源，我们的校园研究社区现在比 成为生物医学信息学研究培训的领导者，进一步加强生命科学和 医疗保健研究。MU信息学研究所（MUM）的创建汇集了生物医学： 信息学研究人员来自校园，充分整合了两个强势部门的师资资源， 计算机科学和健康管理和信息学，并提供了一个结构，利用 优秀的资源。该MUII将管理信息学博士课程，以及多学科 信息学研究教员和研究实习生。
