Workshop Description
We would like to announce the MedIX: Medical
Informatics Workshop that will take place at DePaul University,
Chicago, on Friday, May 6th, 2005. The workshop is an annual event
organized by the Visual Computing Group and it is sponsored through
a DePaul Quality of Instruction (QIC) grant, Upsilon Pi Epsilon
Honor Society, and CTI Colloquium Committee. The goal of the workshop is to provide an
introduction to Medical Informatics to students, faculty,
researchers, and practitioners interested in this field.
The Medical Informatics Workshop will be a full day
event and will feature three introductory presentations by DePaul
faculty in the morning and three advanced presentations by
well-known researchers in the Medical Informatics field in the
afternoon. Speakers from Northwestern University, University of Chicago,
and Mayo Clinic College of Medicine have already confirmed their
participation.
The Spring 2005 Workshop will be the second of a
series of Workshops organized by the Visual Computing research group
at DePaul University. The Spring
2004 Workshop focused on Image Processing and featured three
well known researchers: Dr. Stephen Pizer (University of North
Caroline at Chapel Hill), Dr. Ishwar K. Sethi (Oakland University,
Michigan), and Dr. Sven Dickinson (University of Toronto, Canada).
