Professor of Medicine, Executive Director of Zhongshan Hospital Institute of Clinical Science, Fudan University Shanghai Medical College, Shanghai, China Director of Shanghai Institute of Clinical Bioinformatics, (Aims and Scope The Book Series in Translational Bioinformatics is a powerful and integrative resource for understanding and translating discoveries and advances of genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic and bioinformatic technologies into the study of human diseases. Translational Bioinformatics Volume 10 Series editor Xiangdong Wang, MD, Ph.D. Pediatric Biomedical Informatics Computer Applications in Pediatric Research Second Edition Translational Bioinformatics 10 Series Editor: Xiangdong Wang, MD, Ph.D. Pediatric Biomedical Informatics provides practical insights into the design, implementation, and utilization of informatics infrastructures to optimize care and research to benefit children. The first section of the book discusses important technical challenges underlying computer-based pediatric research, while subsequent sections discuss informatics applications that support biobanking and a broad range of research programs. This book is intended for translational researchers and informaticians in pediatrics, but can also serve as a guide to all institutions facing the challenges of developing and strengthening informatics support for biomedical research. The focus is on the authors’ recent practical experiences in establishing an informatics infrastructure in a large research-intensive children’s hospital. The book describes the core resources in informatics necessary to support biomedical research programs and how these can best be integrated with hospital systems to receive clinical information that is necessary to conduct translational research.
