A Health Information Technology Research Interest Group kickoff meeting will be held at noon on Oct. 15 in Edwards Hall 201, with the goal of creating an environment of like-minded scholars to promote health information technology-related collaborative research across the university.
Open to Clemson faculty and graduate students, the event will be hosted by Ron Gimbel, chair of the department of Public Health Sciences, and Eileen Kraemer, director of the School of Computing.
Gimbel and Kraemer envision an informal group of scholars interested in contributing to future research to improve health care delivery and advancing Clemson’s research emphasis on health. This group aligns with priority initiatives including the Greenville Health System-Clemson research partnership.
Possible collaborative interest areas include mobile health and apps, electronic and personal health records, health information exchanges, clinical decision support, public health information systems and other related technologies.
For more information, contact Ron Gimbel, chair, department of Public Health Sciences.
