  • 3rd IEEE International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics

    The 3rd IEEE EMBS International Conference on Biomedical & Health Informatics (BHI’16) of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society hosted an electronic paper submission process for the conference. It was the responsibility of the submitting Author to ensure the document was viewable and without errors that would prevent the Conference from including the paper in the Digital Proceedings or Website. In the event a paper was submitted that could not be viewed or printed properly, the Conference elected to only publish the abstract of the paper in the Proceedings.

    All conference papers were peer-reviewed by experts chosen by the BHI Conference Editorial Board for all contributed and Special Session papers.

  • WELCOME MESSAGE

    3rd IEEE International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics

    Dear Colleague: We are pleased to welcome you to the 3rd IEEE International Conference on Biomedical Health Informatics. Health Informatics is identified as one of the 14 Grand Challenges of The 21st Century by USA National Academy of Engineering. Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI) 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. Therefore, with the healthcare cost surging in almost all nations around the globe, it is critical to speed up the Biomedical and Health Informatics to improve health care with lower cost. The mission of IEEE BHI 2016 is to continually foster this fast growing community by bringing together more academic researchers, clinicians, industrial representatives, research funding agencies, and government policy makers to identify top challenges and priorities, to present high quality research findings, and to share successful stories around the central theme “Integrative informatics for precision and preventive medicine.” This conference is devoted to translational healthcare, specially for precision and preventive medicine, that encompass both the integration and intersection of engineering, medicine, and healthcare, as the realization of innovative and high-impact ideas in healthcare can be better achieved through the involvement of multiple disciplines. This year, BHI 2016 is also co-located with the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Annual Conference & Exhibition in Las Vegas, NV, USA. The conference is organized into six main topics: Health/Medical Informatics, Bioinformatics, Sensor Informatics, Imaging Informatics, Public Health Informatics, and Theoretical Foundation of Informatics. It will cover diverse topics from cutting-edge biomedical and healthcare technology research and development, clinical applications, to biomedical education. We have a superb group of keynote speakers, workshops, special sessions, and oral and poster sessions. A great deal of effort was done to make sure that all sessions are highly interactive and of interest to our participants. We want to take this opportunity to thank the members of various BHI committees. Their hard work created the robust program that you can enjoy in these three days. We would also like to thank all the participants that choose this venue to present their current research work. Networking is one of the most interesting facets of IEEE BHI 2016 conference we have dedicated part of the program to social events that are going to give you a lot of opportunities to make personal contacts. We are looking forward to seeing you in Las Vegas! On behalf of the 2016 IEEE Biomedical Health Informatics Conference Organizing Committee!
