Biomedical Informatics: Biomedical informatics (BMI) is the interdisciplinary field that studies and pursues the effective uses of biomedical data, information, and knowledge for scientific inquiry, problem solving and decision making, motivated by efforts to improve human health. BMI develops, studies and applies theories, methods and processes for the generation, storage, retrieval, use, and sharing of biomedical data, information, and knowledge. BMI builds on computing, communication, and information sciences and technologies and their application in biomedicine.
The ability to rapidly and accurately identify pain in mice is critical for providing them optimal care and welfare. To meet this need, we developed and validated the Grooming Transfer Test (...
Diseases like cancer have complex tissue morphology requiring microscopic examination. Typically this involves 2D examination through a microscope by a pathologist, a slow and manual pr...
