The Signal

Medical Informatics Europe (MIE) is the flagship scientific conference organized by the European Federation for Medical Informatics (EFMI). The conference brings together researchers, educators, and software engineers to share peer-reviewed studies in health informatics. It covers subjects like health data science, artificial intelligence in medicine, and clinical decision support systems. For healthtech operators, it offers a window into next-generation algorithms and validated informatics methodologies before they enter commercial markets.

What to expect

Peer-reviewed papers on clinical AI algorithms
Evaluations of electronic health record user interfaces
Standardization updates for biomedical ontologies
Collaborative European research consortium formations

Who is in the room

Biomedical informatics researchers, data scientists, clinical systems engineers, and medical librarians.

Background

MIE was first organized in Cambridge, UK, in 1978, making it one of the oldest biomedical informatics conferences in the world. It has served as the academic backbone of European health informatics, fostering a highly collaborative international community over several decades.
