The Children's Hospital Informatics Program at the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology (CHIP) was established
in 1994 by Dr.
Isaac Kohane with two faculty members. Today, we have eighteen
faculty and a similar number of fellows and students, as well as
a core of software engineers and project staff.
The main areas of focus are clinical informatics, public health informatics and bioinformatics.
CHIP is a founding group of the Public Health Informatics Center (PHI Center), a CDC Center of Excellence in Public Health Informatics. CHIP is a core component of the I2B2
(Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside), an NIH-funded
National
Center for Biomedical Computing. CHIP investigators have recently founded the Harvard Medical School Center for Biomedical Informatics.
