Help shape the field of informatics in healthcare by training in the
Biomedical Informatics Training Program at the University of Pittsburgh!
The Center for Dental Informatics is currently recruiting for one trainee in
one or more of the following research areas:
- clinical informatics, with focus on applications in dental care
- information model and/or terminology development
- 3D visualization and simulations
- human-computer interaction
- computer-supported cooperative work
- informatics in evidence-based healthcare
The program is highly multidisciplinary and is open to individuals with
a variety of backgrounds, such as information science/computer science,
dentistry, medicine, information technology or related fields.
The program prepares trainees for a research and teaching career in
dental/biomedical informatics. As part of a group of over 35 trainees,
you will participate in a multi-faceted and stimulating curriculum that
leads to a Masters or a Doctoral Degree in Biomedical Informatics. Twenty-eight core faculty and over 40 affiliated faculty, spanning a total of 20
departments and centers, are available to interact with and mentor you.
Financial support from the NIDCR/NIH is available to eligible
individuals (US citizens and permanent residents). NIDCR/NIH funds provide for a stipend, tuition, fees and health insurance support, travel subsidies,
and a state-of-the-art computer. The program also offers a limited number of
positions for self-funded trainees. Applications are due by spring 2009.
The program begins in August 2009.
