The Advances in Health Informatics Conference (AHIC) invites your submissions to this innovative, peer-reviewed international Health Informatics conference focusing on advances in both R&D and education by December 1, 2011. AHIC 2012 will be a 'green conference' offering onsite and web attendance. AHIC 2012 is seeking papers from both the public and private sectors.

TOPICS FOR SUBMISSION
AHIC 2012 addresses the crucial topic of integrated diagnostics and integrated clinical care delivery, the fusion of information and knowledge at the point of care. Presentations will focus on work that brings information from the multitude of diagnostic processes together into a holistic presentation for the care provider. Examples include combining Diagnostic Radiology Imaging with Digital Pathology, integrating high dimensional data sets and making distillations available at the point of care, and visualizing high dimensional clinical data sets.

AHIC 2012 submissions will be categorized as either foundational contributions of novel informatics concepts, methods, and tools, or the application and evaluation of informatics within the practical, day-to-day healthcare practice and education. To assist attendees in identifying sessions in which they are most interested, the Scientific Program Committee will organize the accepted submissions into these 3 category themes:

1. Progress in Health Informatics in foundational and applied research related to knowledge management and presentation.

2. Advances in Health Informatics education, particularly related to the conference theme.

3. New developments in evidence-based eHealth policy and implementation or healthcare practice impacting knowledge transfer at the point of care.
