Disease Informatics: The burden of disease

Welcome to the series of lectures on Disease Informatics

 

Disappointment by research bodies to solve the real disease problem is because of not having perception of disease complexities

IT applications simplify complexities and could provide better definition of diseases

Informatics professionals need to be facilitated for development of software for disease study using standard guidelines
