Starting 1st April 2013, this project is located under HEALTH AND WELL-BEING RESEARCH CLUSTER lead by PROF. DR. ZAMBERI SEKAWI, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Universiti Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia.
Generally, the main purposes of this program are to research, to develop a computer integrated health system and to pursue the effective use of the untapped clinical data for scientific research with the ultimate goal to improve human health. The professionals in the medical fields are faced with an increasing quantity of highly complex, multi-dimensional and illstructured data. There are vast amounts of clinical data; some are
digitally stored in heterogeneous platform form while others are still recorded on paper. These collections of data are naturally, highly complex, multidimensional, and unstructured. Thus, medical practitioners cannot
effectively integrate, apply and manipulate all this data into knowledge for further clinical research advancement.
This research program will study on how to tap on healthcare knowledge and integrating them into a unified
clinical information infrastructure for clinical discoveries beyond human expert diagnosis and decision making. To comply and fulfill the requirements of a total solution for computer integrated health system that satisfy medical practitioner, the research program covers knowledge and involvement of expertise from four research groups; Computer Graphics, Vision and Visualization (CGV2) Digital Information Computation and Retrieval (DICR), Database Theory, Technology and Application (DTTA) and Distributed Network Computing (DNC), Intelligent computing. The team associate researcher include practioner and clinical expert from UITM, PPUKM and IJN.
Thanks so much for sharing this great information! I have been really interested in finding out a little bit more about computerized diagnostics in Colorado Springs, CO... Where is the best place to go for more information on that?
