Distributed evidence – the next epoch in healthcare evidence will be shaped by “real world,” bottom-up syntheses of patient-, clinician- and computer-generated data.
Cognitive potency – the ways in which information is assembled, packaged, and delivered in interactions with patients and clinicians are potent determinants of healthcare decisions.
Complexity informatics – healthcare informatics systems operate in highly uncertain, changing and interconnected settings.
Internet-assisted intelligence – patients and clinicians currently rely and will soon depend on Internet technologies.

Medical Information Sciences
How are the Internet and medical information changing the way clinicians work and patients engage in their care? Healthcare participants on the vanguard of change are developing and deploying new ways to generate and apply medical data and meta-data. The most progressive of these Internet-based tools and mobile platforms draw from diverse sciences (including behavioral, cognitive, anthropologic and complexity sciences) and industrial domains (such as consumer marketing, entertainment and gaming, and aviation).
The impact of medical informatics instruments (products and services) on clinician and consumer decisions and behavior is becoming profound. Small wonder, then, that as the marketplace lurches inexorably toward information transparency and web-based experience sharing and value-based purchasing, these medical data are the new industry “currency.” Moreover, the new era of personalized medicine is based upon computer- and information-based interventions and instruments, positioning this field at the very heart of high-performance medicine.
With this in mind, IC Sciences established the Division of Medical Information Sciences to serve as a source of expertise and consultative services regarding this dynamic field.
