Fellowship in Biomedical Informatics

Fellows in Anesthesia Biomedical Informatics will develop their knowledge and experience in the use of information technology, allowing them to optimize safety and quality for patients in the intraoperative environment, with an end goal of improving short and long-term patient outcomes.

Fellows will work alongside faculty mentors in the Department of Anesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine. Fellows will participate in a one or two year comprehensive program to prepare for roles in developing, implementing and studying clinical information systems. Fellows will gain experience in the field of health services research and biomedical informatics within the academic setting of the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. The program will allow individuals to acquire essential research skills and an understanding of quality improvement methodology, in order to improve patient care.
