About
Ph.D. in Informatics with a specialization in Health and Biomedical Informatics
There is no limit to the potential for innovation in the field of health and biomedical data. Health informatics researchers are examining far-reaching issues such as:
- How do we design electronic health record systems to deliver genomic and genetic information to clinicians so they can make better patient treatment decisions?
- How will we harness the power of social media to identify, monitor, and respond to disease outbreaks?
- How can we create technology to improve healthcare outcomes in the most remote locales on the planet?
The Ph.D. in Health Informatics program at the IU School of Informatics and Computing at IUPUI immerses students in challenges like these and addresses them through pioneering research questions and approaches.
Our graduates play critical roles in healthcare organizations, managing and integrating systems for electronic health records and examining how we interact with technology.
