CIC Call for Participation Now Open!

AMIA invites you to submit your proposals, ideas, and experiences for the 2020 Clinical Informatics Conference! 

CIC is making a mark on healthcare. This is where practitioners in health informatics including physicians, nurses, physician assistants, technicians, HIT developers, data analysts, C-suite executives, and all members of the healthcare team come together and share what they know and what they’re doing to create progress.

Our collective goal is to advance healthcare systems driven by data, evidence, and best practice with the explicit purpose of creating better health information technologies.

This is our fastest-growing meeting. With a loyal following of repeat attendees and new attendees doubling and tripling our expectations, CIC is proving itself to be a genuine home to the burgeoning field of applied clinical informatics. 

Present, network, and share with fellow clinicians, data scientists, and HIT developers – you’ll be giving your colleagues invaluable tools to help in their day-to-day practice.

Topic Areas (below) and Keywords

• Usability, Efficiency, and Experience 
• Clinical Decision Support and Analytics 
• Learning Health System 
• Interoperability and Informatics Infrastructure
