The DebugIT Winter School 2010 takes place in Paris, 13-15 January

The event is dedicated to in-depth exploration of core challenges of the DebugIT project, namely the building of a common infrastructure for sharing and reusing clinical data in the domain of infectious diseases for the purpose of knowledge extraction through data mining and transformation of this knowledge into useful clinical decision support. The workshops have the following aims:

  • To allow the members of the DebugIT project to have in-depth discussions on core methodologies
  • To contribute to the overall scientific-technical coordination of the project
  • To foster cooperative learning and professional development among project members
  • To explore different ways of deployment of DebugIT results
  • To explore further cooperation and synergies with related European projects

The Winter School is primarily targetted to the DebugIT consortium. Related projects are warmly welcomed! The event will take place in Paris, 13-15 January 2010. For more information: DebugITwinterschool2010.pdf

DebugIT organises an International Workshop on Information Technology for Patient Safety

The International Workshop on Information Technology for Patient Safety, held in conjunction with the 9th International Conference on Information Technology and Applications in Biomedicine ITAB 2009, is envisaged as a compilation of the latest trends and developments in the field of information technology for patient safety. The workshop aims to enable interaction and knowledge exchange with researchers actively involved in this field. It is organized in the framework of the project DEBUGIT (Detecting and Eliminating Bacteria UsinG Information Technologies), which focuses on building information technology tools that should have significant impacts for the monitoring and control of infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistances in Europe.
