In today’s world, public health faces new difficult challenges. Bioterrorism. Emerging infections. Antibiotic-resistant organisms. Public health informatics is there to guide the way—a systematic application of information and computer science and technology to public health practice, research, and learning.

Who we are:
We are a focal point, fostering research, education, and development.

We are a collaboration between Indiana University, the Regenstrief Institute, the Indiana State Department of Health, and the Marion County Health Department (just to name a few). We are a collaboration of multidisciplinary researchers and public health practitioners with a goal of advancing public health informatics by developing a robust infrastructure. The collaborative includes:

• Executive Advisory Group (Steering Committee)
