The advancement in biotechnologies and health IT in recent years has made it convenient to generate and collect digital health related data. The wide adoption of electronic health record (EHR) systems, smart devices, and social media has generated an enormous amount of data. To utilize the rich data in health care, it is an urgent need to train many qualified Health Informatics (HI) professionals to manage, explore, analyze, and explain the healthcare data. For that purpose, many new HI education programs have been created in the last decade.
Researchers and educators also have devoted a significant amount of time and efforts to explore the best approaches for providing high-quality HI education so that HI graduates can overcome challenges they face in their careers. However, as an interdisciplinary field, there are different patterns of HI education around the world with various challenges. Moreover, the large amount of health data presents unprecedented opportunities and challenges for training with hands-on experiences on real-world data to solve real-world problems.
To shape the future of health informatics education, the 2022 International Workshop on Health Informatics Education (HI-Edu) will provide a unique platform for close interactions among educators, researchers, students, scholars, and industry professionals who are interested in HI education. We are calling for papers and abstracts about original education research, best practice, case studies, and works in progress in HI education methods, tools, applications, and resources.
Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:
- Regular papers (8-10 pages, references not counted towards the page limit) will describe mature ideas, where a substantial amount of implementation, experimentation, or data collection and analysis has been completed.
- Short papers (4-6 pages, excluding references) will describe innovative ideas, where preliminary implementation and validation work have been conducted.
- Posters (1-2 pages, excluding references) can describe work in progress and signficant preliminary results.
Your submissions must adhere to the IEEE Proceedings Format. All papers and posters will be submitted and handled through EasyChair. Submissions must contain the names and affiliations of authors listed on the paper. The review process will be single-blinded.
