Medical and Healthcare Informatics (MHI) is the field of information science concerned with the analysis and dissemination of medical and other health-related data through the application of computers to various aspects of healthcare and medicine.
MHI is an interdisciplinary field. There are relatively few information sources devoted specifically to medical and healthcare informatics. Much of the literature relevant to MHI is dispersed in disciplinary databases in medicine and technology. Accordingly, this guide covers only major resources in these areas.
If you are seeking additional technology-related information consult other Resource Guides on the Hagerty Library site, such as: Biomedical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Information Systems & Technology or Telecommunications. Guides to health-related information can be found under the Health Sciences heading on the Research Guides page.
