Translational research and biomedical informatics.
A critical need exists to address real issues that appear when a physician is faced with a patient and the need to make clinical decisions that will impact the patient, their quality life, and those of the patient's family. Bridging this gap between the clinical need and the available technologies, clinical data, and clinician input is the role that Biomedical Informatics can play in driving the evolution of patient care in the post-genome era.
