AMIA 2006 Annual Symposium

Invitation to Exhibit

Invitation to Participate in the Innovation and Information Center (formerly Expo Center)

Introduction

AMIA recognizes that an integral part of supporting the transition to the electronic health record and the nationwide health information network is to carefully and thoughtfully guide the transition from research to planning, development, implementation and new practice and repeating this cycle through continued evaluation. AMIA 2006 attendees will include those who have conceptual and theoretical perspectives, those with needs for practical knowledge of real-life approaches and solutions, and those with ideas and products that they feel address desired needs.

What is the Innovation and Information Center?

The Innovation and Information Center is a place to see and critique firsthand some of the innovations that will bring us the next generation of information systems in health care, public health, research, and biomedicine. The goals of the AMIA Annual Symposium and the Innovation and Information Center are to share the results of health informatics research, identify and articulate future needs, nurture the careers of informaticians, and provide opportunities for developers and users of informatics to meet and learn from one another. Given the changes in health information technology and informatics within health care globally, these goals are more important than ever. We hope you will participate in this important forum for improving health and health care through innovative informatics.

The AMIA Innovation and Information Center seeks to link developers, educators, researchers, and practitioners. The Innovation and Information Center is a unique venue to recognize and showcase real world innovation and advances in informatics. Both ideas and products are welcome.
