Institute Taps Computer Power for Medical ResearchThe Institute for Computational Medicine, launched last week at Johns Hopkins, will address important health problems by using powerful information management and computing technologies to produce a better understanding of the origins of human disease. http://www.jhu.edu/~gazette/2005/17oct05/17power.htm The Institute for Computational Medicine"To understand the mechanisms and to improve the diagnosis, prediction and treatment of human disease through applications of mathematics and computational science" – collaboration of two institutions, the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the Whiting School of Engineering. http://www.icm.jhu.edu/index.html The Computational Medicine CenterA collaborative medical research center between Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and the University of Cincinnati Medical Center that uses data and computational systems to make disease more preventable, illness more predictive and treatment more personalized. http://www.computationalmedicine.org/center/ The Center for Computational Medicine and Biology"To facilitate interdisciplinary research in computational medicine and biology and to forge collaborative relationships with faculty across campus and the US. Computational medicine and biology utilizes advanced computational methods applied to biological or medical questions to provide new solutions and develop new hypotheses." http://www.ccmb.med.umich.edu/ Computational Medicine at Linköping University & Karolinska Institutet"A systembiological approach to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease by integrating clinical practice, experimental medicine, genomics and computational mathematics." |
