President’s Page

The AMIA Board would like to acknowledge Ted Shortliffe for his superb service as AMIA President and CEO. Ted took over the leadership of AMIA in 2009. Having Ted at the helm has been truly a gift for AMIA. Ted brought to the role the perspectives of over 4 decades of informatics experience, much of it in leadership positions and spanning research, clinical and administrative activities. Ted was one of the founders of AMIA and he had served in many leadership roles previously at the organization. Ted had several important accomplishments during his tenure as CEO and President including: an important advancement of the corporate membership program, an advancement of the marketing and communications program, the formalization of the clinical subspecialty certification process for Clinical Informatics, and the substantial growth of the translational bioinformatics and clinical research informatics "Summits" meetings. We are saddened to be losing Ted as the leader of AMIA. We certainly wish him well in his next ventures and look forward to his continued participation in AMIA.

President’s Column and Other Messages from AMIA

In 2011, AMIA’s scientific journal, the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association, began to include a brief "Messages from AMIA" column at the end of each issue. The purpose of these columns is to provide a forum for our organization to inform and involve its current and potential members through a regular series of articles that are suitable for inclusion in a widely read archival publication. The messages are generally written by the President of AMIA and reflect the goals and direction of the organization. Occasionally another AMIA leader, such as the Chair of the Board of Directors, writes these columns, which are intended to inspire members and readers to connect with the association on strategic objectives and activities. An archive of the articles is maintained here on the AMIA web site. Unless otherwise indicated, the author of the column is AMIA’s President and CEO.
