Course Description
The
Duke/UNC Joint Health Informatics Seminar Presentation Series is sponsored by
Duke Center for Health Informatics and the Carolina Health Informatics Program. This series explores key areas in Health
Informatics and includes research results, overview of programs of research
(both basic and applied), and evaluative projects. Speakers with extensive informatics
experiences and knowledge from both academia and industry are usually invited
to present. The general goal is to
expose students to ongoing cutting-edge R&D issues in health informatics and
add to their basic understanding of the area.
Students should aim to participate in a selected set of presentations
that directly overlap with their own areas of interest and they are expected to
synthesize the knowledge gleaned from the seminar presentations into a
presentation which summarizes their key concepts and issues and their personal
reflections on them.
Objectives:
● Attend presentations that relate to
research interests and ongoing projects
● Engage with the presenters to expand
on presentation topics to gain deeper understanding
Course Requirements
● Presentation at the end of the
semester highlighting key topics and personal reflections on them
● Attendance on topics that coincide
with your interests / projects.
