MIE -Medical Informatics Europe conference is one of the most well known conferences in our field. This year the conference was organized within a joint event of four scientific disciplines: Medical Informatics, Medical Biometry, Epidemiology and Health Data Management under the common title of HEC2016.
HEC2016 brought together the annual conferences of the German Association for Medical Informatics, Biometry and Epidemiology (GMDS), the German Society for Epidemiology (DGEpi), the International Epidemiological Association- European Region (IEA-EEF) and the European Federation for Medical Informatics Association (EFMI, MIE 2016).
HEC2016 took place in Mu¨nchen, Germany, in the main building of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universita¨t (LMU) from 28 August to 2 September 2016 under the auspices of the Institute for Medical Information Processing, Biometry and Epidemiology of LMU.
The program was surrounded by twelve tutorials held by international renowned scientists and covered a broad spectrum from innovative biostatistical and epidemiological methods to tutorials in application of innovative software, scientific writing, and data protection issues.
Taking part in an international congress was a great opportunity to encounter interesting scientific topics and to meet the academicians working in our field from all over the world. The conference was very informative for me, and it was my pleasure to share our research in such an inspiring conference. |
