    Information Management Technology 12 May 2006 | News Image not found or type unknown Information Management Technology Laboratory informatics has a much broader application area-scientific research from drug discovery to production. Information science or "informatics" is the science of information. It is often studied as a branch of computer science and information technology and is related to database, ontology and software engineering. Informatics is primarily concerned with: Creating and structuring data Management, storage and retrieval of data Distribution and transfer of information Informatics is about the transformation of information by computation or communication; by machines or people. It is the intersection of artificial intelligence, cognitive science, computing science and related fields. Informatics focuses on understanding business or scientific research challenges and applying information technology as the solution-tackling the problem first rather than technology first. It combines software applications, search technology, database storage and tools for digitally-enabled collaboration. Laboratory informatics Laboratory informatics is the specialized application of information technology to maximize laboratory operations, particularly in analytical, production and research and development. Laboratory informatics encompasses data acquisition, data processing, data analysis and long-term archiving, electronic laboratory notebooks, laboratory information management, laboratory automation, scientific data management, document

Make a list of your lab’s equipment and do your research to make sure it will work with the new informatics platform before you start. How does the scale (size, people, and processes) How will increases in scope or scale determine affect the ideal informatics set-up? which informatics system should be used? Modern informatics systems come in a variety of different types and Increases in scope or scale can bring up many fears for most configurations to suit any researcher’s needs.

  • Laboratory Informatics and the Laboratory Information System
    1 Laboratory Informatics and the Laboratory Information System DANIEL F. COWAN The primary objective of clinical laboratorians is to provide the highest possible quality of service to patients and those who care for patients. High-quality ser- vice encompasses accurate and precise analysis, timely, clear, and concise report- ing, and delivery of the service to a location in a format most valuable to the user of the service. Quality has also come to include elements of efficiency, effective- ness, analysis of diagnostic utility, and decision support.1,2 Delivery of the ser- vice has come to mean that integration into a comprehensive electronic medical record (EMR) is to be expected.3,4 Although it is widely accepted that about 70% of the information used in the management of patients comes from the clinical and anatomical pathology laboratories,5 in one large medical center in which information flow is tracked, about 94% of requests to the EMR are for laboratory results.4 In addition, a critical quality feature is the transformation of laboratory data into information.2,5,6–8 Drives for improved quality, integration, and efficiency have resulted in the incorporation of information technology and the personnel, policy, and proce- dural changes needed to exploit the technology into the clinical service labora- tory.9–11 This applies equally well to anatomic and clinical pathology. It seems clear enough that the managers of laboratory operations must understand infor- mation, the purpose of information, and the proper management of information in order to survive and prosper in an environment that demands an orientation to service and a full appreciation for the inter-relationship between processes and events.

    Chemical Informatics and Cyberinfrastructure Collaboratory A project funded by the National Institutes of Health under the NIH Roadmap Molecular Libraries Initiative for Exploratory Centers (P20) for Cheminformatics Research NIH Grant No. 1 P20 HG003894-01 (Fox) Geoffrey C. Fox, Principal Investigator October 1, 2005 – September 30, 2007 Page 0 Chemical Informatics and Cyberinfrastructure Collaboratory A. Executive Summary Chemical and life science research is capable of generating terabytes of data each day. Answers to health-related problems are buried in the data, and the computer techniques of informatics can help unearth sound medical solutions for the benefit of all. In conjunction with other units of Indiana University and external advisors, the School of Informatics and the Pervasive Technology Laboratories at Indiana University will use a grant from the National Institutes of Health to establish an exploratory center for cheminformatics research, the Chemical Informatics and Cyberinfrastructure Collaboratory (CICC). Over the next two years, the CICC will investigate novel approaches to assist in the discovery of new chemical compounds. Using powerful computer simulation and visualization environments, an integrated Chemical Informatics Cyberinfrastructure based on modern distributed service architectures will be constructed. The project will utilize the emerging high-capacity computer networks, powerful data repositories, and computers that comprise the Grid. This will ensure scalability, computational efficiency, and interoperability among heterogeneous components and will lead to the development of specific data-mining tools and applications for chemistry. The tools and infrastructure will be tested in real-life industry and academic science situations, so the approach can be assessed by practicing scientists, ultimately contributing to the design of a new kind of integrated discovery environment that will vastly speed up scientific research.
