Collecting global health data is an imperfect science: Workers tramp through villages to knock on doors and ask questions, write the answers on paper forms, then input the data -- and from this messy, gappy information, countries and NGOs need to make huge decisions. Data geek Joel Selanikio talks through the sea change in collecting health data in the past decade -- starting with the PalmPilot and Hotmail, and now moving into the cloud.

What if you could know exactly how food or medication would impact your health -- before you put it in your body? Genomics researcher Jun Wang is working to develop digital doppelgangers for real people; they start with genetic code, but they'll also factor in other kinds of data as well, from food intake to sleep to data collected by a "smart toilet." With all of this valuable information, Wang hopes to create an engine that will change the way we think about health, both on an individual level and as a collective.

The conceptual structure for the course derives from the statement below that expresses the purpose of health informatics. Health informatics applies to a wide range of health-related application domains a set of methods (drawn from the informational and behavioral sciences) to create and study informational resources that support the health-related activities of people (individuals and groups) in these domains. The methods employed in health informatics derive from both the computational/informational sciences and the behavioral/social sciences. This course, as an initial immersion into the field of health informatics, will examine the domains, methods, and classes of information resources that, together, create the scaffolding of the field.
