Biomedical and Health Informatics Graduate Training Program at UNC Chapel Hill CHIP is an interdisciplinary program.

Students may collaborate across the UNC School of Information and Library Science, the School of Medicine, the Gillings School of Global Public Health, and the School of Nursing. Our program has a foundation in theory, but our focus is putting knowledge into practice. All programs require a separate, or course-integrated practicum designed to bridge the areas of research, policy, and industry. Par

ticipants in our program are applying their knowledge in hospitals and clinics as well as public health agencies, medical libraries, and pharmaceutical companies. The program is located in one of the country’s top medical regions--home to UNC Health Care, Duke Medicine, and industry leaders in the medical and information technology fields.

CHIP doctoral student, Max Natthawut recently attended the annual healthcare data analytics association Conference. We are inspired by his takeaways and insight from the experience below! He volunteered as the event photographer, which resulted in some fantastic images. A huge thanks to Max for sharing his experience and his photography talent!

🏆 The 4-day conference kicked off with an executive summit. Data leaders from across the US shared insights on communicating the value of data teams to hospitals, data governance, and fostering a data & analytics culture. Key takeaways: If you're not deliberate about your culture, it will happen to you - potentially resulting in subpar data governance and underdelivered value. Data governance is often misunderstood; focus on the problems it solves, like ensuring good training data for AI models.

📊 The conference showcased how leading healthcare organizations are harnessing the power of data and modern analytics tools to drive clinical, operational and financial improvements. Networking events and roundtable discussions provided valuable opportunities for analytics leaders to share challenges and best practices around implementing and optimizing these technologies.

😍 Overall, it was an incredible experience for me to witness the analytics in action from various viewpoints and through different lenses. (Pun intended; as I shot thousands of photos there.) Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and would help expand your network in the job market. I recommend that you should join their next conference being held by Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee!

So proud of CHIP Doctoral student, John Geracitano! He recently passed his comp exam, successfully defending his dissertation research proposal. His research will be focused on developing a geospatial web tool operationalizing the newly developed Digital Health Index. This tool will serve as a national resource for patients, providers, and researchers to gain insight into the digital health landscape. Assessed factors include elements from the social, geographic, and digital domains, such as high-speed internet availability and driving distances to Urgent Care and Emergency Departments.

John has quickly progressed through this doctoral coursework to reach this significant milestone! We are excited for the next steps in his academic journey!
