DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI) research training program at the University of Washington (UW) has matured rapidly and expanded significantly since its inception in 1999. UW offers a highly collaborative environment with a strong track record of interdisciplinary research initiatives, which has driven the culture and priorities of the UW BHI activities. At its core the UW program recognizes that a key characteristic of successful BHI researchers is the ability to play a leadership role in translating methods and models from the computing sciences, information sciences and behavioral sciences into tools and solutions for information related challenges and opportunities to improve health for individuals, communities, nationally and globally. The vision of BHI at UW is to promote research and education unleashing the potential for electronic biomedical data and information to advance research and improve health. In that context, BHI trains future research leaders in the field with translational skills and interdisciplinary expertise across the domains of bioinformatics, clinical informatics, and public health informatics. The UW training program consists of: a) a core curriculum of foundational concepts in the field that reach across the discipline, b) core domain courses (clinical, biological, and public health), c) methodology courses (research methods, knowledge representation, communication and teaching), and d) individualized in depth electives in foundational and domain areas. To maintain its success in recruiting and fostering success for students and faculty, UW BHI proposes to continue the NLM training program, seeking funding to support 15 trainees for the next funding cycle. As we continue to build our program we plan to continue to expand our interdisciplinary research collaborations with three strategic areas of focus in particular: a) leveraging BHI's leadership role in our Institute of Translational Health Sciences, b) introduce formal practicum experiences for all our trainees and c) continue and enhance the role of informatics in clinical research.

描述（由申请人提供）：华盛顿大学（UW）的生物医学和健康信息学（BHI）研究培训计划自1999年成立以来就已经迅速成长，并大大扩展。UW提供了高度协作的环境，并具有较强的跨学科研究倡议记录，该计划促进了UW Bhi Bhi活动的文化和优先级的跨学科研究。 UW计划从本质上说，成功的BHI研究人员的关键特征是能够在将计算科学，信息科学和行为科学从计算机科学，信息科学和行为科学转化为与信息相关的挑战和机会的工具和解决方案中发挥领导作用，以改善个人，社区，全国和全球。 UW的BHI愿景是促进研究和教育释放电子生物医学数据和信息的潜力，以提高研究和改善健康。在这种情况下，BHI在生物信息学，临床信息学和公共卫生信息学领域培训了该领域的未来研究领导者，具有翻译技能和跨学科专业知识。 UW培训计划包括：a）跨学科的基础概念的核心课程，b）核心领域课程（临床，生物学和公共卫生），c）方法论课程（研究方法，知识代表，交流和教学），以及D）在基础和领域的深度选民中对基础和领域进行了个人化。为了维持其在为学生和教职员工招募和促进成功方面的成功，UW BHI建议继续进行NLM培训计划，并寻求资助以支持15名学员为下一个融资周期。随着我们继续构建计划，我们计划继续扩展我们与三个战略重点领域的跨学科研究合作：a）利用BHI在我们的转化健康科学研究所中的领导作用，b）为所有受训者引入正式实践经验，并继续为我们的所有受训者提供正式的实践经验，并继续并增强信息在临床研究中的作用。
