MEDINFO 2015 is organized around three axis relevant to the domains of translational bioinformatics, clinical informatics, clinical research informatics, nursing informatics, consumer health informatics and public health informatics. The theme and the topics of the congress are listed in more detail at the congress website www.medinfo2015.org. All submissions must be in English and conform to the prescribed submission guidelines and formats also available at the website. In summary, MEDINFO 2015 welcomes the following types of contributions: Full Paper: A full paper is an original contribution with novel methodologies or new insights that advance the science and application of health and biomedical informatics. Each full paper must be no more than five pages in length. Accepted papers will be presented as oral presentations at the conference. Vision Paper: A vision paper is a well-thought, well-argued position statement that highlights new challenges and proposes potential directions and novel solutions in health and biomedical informatics. Each vision paper must be no more than five pages in length. Accepted papers will be presented as oral presentations at the conference. Student Paper: A student paper summarizes a student-led, complete or nearly complete research or development effort; the top eight student papers will be selected for award consideration and invited to present at the pre-conference Student Paper Competition. Student papers presented at the competition and other accepted student papers will also be presented at the pre-conference doctoral symposium or the regular conference program. Each student paper must be no more than five pages in length. Poster: A poster illustrates pilot research, research in progress, or the design of a system or process, with a clear statement of the degree of innovation. Each poster must be submitted as a one-page abstract and must conform to the MEDINFO 2015 abstract format. Accepted abstracts will be presented as posters at the conference. Panel: A panel is a forum for a moderated analysis of an important issue or an emerging trend in health and biomedical informatics. A panel involves 1 90-minute session, with 4-5 presenters, including a moderator; preference will be given to panels with presenters from multiple countries or perspectives. Each panel proposal must be no more than three pages in length. Accepted proposals will be presented as panel sessions at the conference. Demonstration: A demonstration showcases an innovative, non-commercial system resulting from research or private-public efforts. A demonstration proposal should clearly describe the system/process to be demonstrated and provide a clear statement of the innovation. Each demonstration proposal must be no more than three pages in length. Accepted proposals will be presented as theatre-style demonstrations at the conference. Workshop: A workshop is an informative or interactive session that addresses a specific theme or topic in health and biomedical informatics. A workshop involves 1 or 2 90-minute sessions, with 4-5 main speakers who introduce the main topics and other active participants. A workshop proposal should list the main speakers affiliations, the target participants, a summary of the topics to be covered, and the proposed activities and expected outcomes, e.g., oral presentations, posters, and break-out sessions, etc. Each workshop proposal must be no more than three pages in length. Note that workshops are part of the main congress program and participation will not incur addition registration fees. Tutorial: A tutorial is an education session that introduces a specific topic in health and biomedical informatics. A tutorial usually involves 1 or 2 180-minute sessions, with 1-3 instructors. A tutorial proposal should list the instructors’ affiliations, the target audience, pre-requisite knowledge, a set of learning objectives and expected outcomes, a summary of the topics to be covered, and the interactive strategies to engage the audience. Each tutorial proposal must be no more than three pages in length. Note that tutorials are part of the pre-congress program and participation will incur additional registration fees. |
