Welcome to the AMIA 2020 Virtual Informatics Summit.

The AMIA 2020 Virtual Informatics Summit is an online meeting designed in place of the original live meeting scheduled in Houston.

Virtual sessions will take place March 23 – 26, 11:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. EDT each day.

The program includes four plenary sessions and 12 sessions representative of the four tracks: Bioinformatics, Clinical Research, Implementation, Data Science.

The full program schedule is now available. Please note: The Virtual Informatics Summit does not offer CME credit.

Register now! This Virtual Summit is in GoToWebinar format and an open opportunity for anyone. There is no cost to register. Each day uses a different GoToWebinar registration link.

You will receive an email confirmation from Susanne Arnold on behalf of GoToWebinar for each registration. This includes a link to join the presentation (on the day of) as well as dial-in information and a calendar appointment. Please check your SPAM and junk filters if the confirmation doesn't arrive. If you have registration questions, please contact Susanne at susanne@amia.org.

While we are not able to accommodate all the presentations that were originally selected, all accepted content will still be available in the Summit Proceedings and papers/student papers will be archived in PubMed Central.

Cancellation Policy: Cancellation of a conference registration does not constitute cancellation of a hotel room. Please be sure to handle both separately. Cancellation and refund requests must be received by AMIA in writing (e-mail your request dasha@amia.org) by April 17, 2020.

Donation Option: AMIA is a nonprofit organization and relies heavily on the revenue from our scientific conferences to continue with operations and continuing our mission. While cancelling these live events are necessary for the health and well-being of all involved, it creates a significant loss for the organization. If you are not able to attend the virtual event, we ask that you consider donating your conference registration to AMIA. In return, you will sustain our work during this challenging time as we move forward with future AMIA initiatives. Donations of any size are fully tax deductible.

The AMIA 2020 Informatics Summit focuses on cutting edge research around four main areas: Translational Bioinformatics, Clinical Research Informatics, Implementation Informatics and Data Science. The meeting brings together researchers from these fields and beyond to share their work and promote a vibrant exchange of ideas leading to new collaborations, innovation and discovery. The program is diverse including research presentations, keynote speakers, panels and short “elevator pitch” presentations highlighting the newest developments in the field of informatics with the goal of enhancing the sharing of methods and approaches across the four areas of focus.
