21st International Congress of the European Federation for Medical Informatics MIE 2008
Invitation to attend MIE 2008 from the EFMI - European Federation for Medical Informatics, and SFMI - Swedish Federation for Medical Informatics:
- Medical informatics has developed from a merely technically oriented discipline towards a cross-disciplinary field in the intersection of health, engineering and social sciences. Societal and demographic changes such as an ageing society, increased human mobility and lifestyle-related health problems but also the rapid development of information producing medical technology challenge our field of research.
- European healthcare systems will have to meet increased patient and citizen demands with easy-to-use cross-border information technology. To provide high-quality health care and prevention, these systems should fulfil not only clinical and technical demands, but also economic, legal, social, and ethical requirements. In the future, eHealth has to become an integrated part of our society.
