The Signal

This summit brings together academic researchers, data scientists, and clinical informaticians to present advanced research findings. The agenda focuses on the science behind data models, genomic medicine, and clinical decision support systems. Unlike broader commercial exhibitions, the sessions are peer reviewed and highly technical. For healthtech operators, it offers an early look at validated informatics methods that will influence enterprise systems over the next decade.

What to expect

Peer reviewed publications on clinical decision support
Advances in translational bioinformatics methodologies
Federal research grant and policy presentations
Data standards harmonization recommendations

Who is in the room

Academic researchers, clinical data scientists, medical informatics directors, biostatisticians, and software engineers attend this summit.

Background

The summit was established to provide a dedicated space for the translational and clinical research wings of the informatics community. It was designed to bridge the gap between basic biological data science and clinical application. It rotates annually among major academic and technology hubs in the United States.
