NLM HPCC Training Grants

Budget Code:

Currently, there are too few professionals in biomedical fields who have had training in the use of modern computer and telecommunications systems. There is a need both for biomedical professionals cross-trained in Informatics and for persons from computer and information sciences and engineering who have had doctoral or post-doctoral training in the application of these technologies to health problems. Medical centers that wish to modernize and network efficiently their institution-wide information services have found it difficult to identify and recruit senior professionals with this kind of education and training. Training in health information management skills is critical. NLM is expanding its successful pre-doctoral and post-doctoral grants program for career training in medical Informatics, both for research and application, and providing an HPCC-in-medicine fellowship training support.
