April 7-11, 2014
The Joint Summits on Translational Science will consist of the Summit on Translational Bioinformatics (TBI) on April 7-9 followed by the Summit on Clinical Research Informatics (CRI) on April 9-11. As in years past, the “bridge day” on April 9 will focus on topics of interest to both communities.
The TBI and CRI Summits are the premier forums for interacting with leaders in informatics at the interface of biology and health care. Translational bioinformatics and clinical research informatics and are the informatics domains that support translational research in the context of human health and disease, and touch nearly all areas of biological, biomedical, and clinical research. Translational bioinformatics includes innovative methods and discoveries applied to biologic data, with special focus on human application, including personalized medicine. Clinical research informatics focuses on innovations related to the management of information related to clinical trials and includes informatics related to secondary research use of clinical data.
