We will have a Data Science seminar this Friday, April 12th, 12:00-1:00pm
at the MRB Seminar Room (1st floor).

The talk will also provide a demo of the TriNetX clinical data platform
that will be available to UCR researchers starting on April 15, 2024.

The talk will be given by Dr. Daniel Novak, Dept. of Social Medicine,
Population, & Public Health, UCR

*Title:*
Charting the Future: Integrating Health Informatics into Undergraduate
Medical Education

*Abstract:*
Digital information systems have become central to the practice of
medicine over the last twenty years, and the next twenty years will bring
even greater changes challenges, and benefits for physicians, patients,
and health systems. While trends in AI, Big Data, and Digital Health
indicate major changes on the horizon, health informatics platforms that
derive data from clinical environments have already begun to change how
physicians and public health research real-world clinical problems. In
recognition of the value of these technologies, the American Medical
Association has ascribed Health Informatics a prominent place as a new
competency in the field of Health Systems Science. As students begin their
journey towards becoming physician leaders, they will need the knowledge,
skills, and critical perspectives necessary to understand, use, and
steward these technological systems even as they continue to evolve.

In this talk, I will describe the current need for health informatics
education in undergraduate medical education (MD) programs, how these
technologies can dovetail with the pressing need to standardize and
improve research education in UME, and provide a demo of the TriNetX
clinical data platform that will be available at UCR starting on April 15,
2024. Participant questions will be welcomed.


------------------------------------
Sponsored by the UCR Data Science Center, the purpose of the Data Science
Seminars is to foster collaborations between "core" Data Science faculty
(from CSE/ECE/Stat Departments) and faculty/visitors from other sciences
that face Data Science problems in their research. These informal
gatherings are open to interested faculty and graduate students. Each
meeting will start with a talk describing research problems and then a
discussion will follow for questions, open problems, ideas for possible
collaborations etc.

A full list of previous seminars appears at:

Forward this email to other colleagues or graduate students in your lab
that may be interested. Moreover, if you are interested in giving a Data
Science related talk, please contact me (tsotras at cs.ucr.edu).

Sincerely,
Vassilis Tsotras
Professor, CSE Department
co-Director, Data Science Major
Director, MS in Computational Data Science
