Course Description
Foundations of Health Informatics II follows Foundation of Health Informatics I as the second in a series of two “core” biomedical informatics courses. In contrast to Foundations I, this course is intended for students who will focus their career on some aspect of biomedical informatics or related disciplines. Whenever possible, assignments will leverage systems and/or datasets that are practically significant (e.g., PubMed, publicly available clinical datasets). Thus, the course will help students develop practical skills.
Learning Objectives
Upon successfully completing this course, students will be able to:
- Represent biomedical data geometrically, probabilistically and as sequence state models.
- Explain the advantages and disadvantages of different representational approaches.
- Use open source software to process and analyze biomedical data
