The Children's Hospital Informatics Program is one of seven Boston
area research and development groups in medical informatics that
together offer a combined Harvard-MIT-New England Medical Center
Research Training Program in Medical Informatics funded by the
National Library of Medicine (NLM). The program, coordinated by Dr. Robert Greenes, has
co-directors at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, New England
Medical Center, Massachusetts General Hospital, Children's Hospital,
Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital and the Harvard School of Public
Health. Several of CHIP's projects include major participation by
postdoctoral research fellows in this program. Further information
about postdoctoral and predoctoral fellowships in medical informatics
is available.
The goal of the CHIP Informatics Traning Program is to develop
leaders in academic research and in industrial applications of
informatics. All fellows in CHIP will be expected to apply to the
Master's Degree program in Medical Informatics through the combined
HMS/MIT program. The Masters Program combines formal course work with
a research agenda. CHIP provides a rich environment for a variety of
informatics investigations for this research agenda and faculty with a wide range of
interests.
