Title subject: Call for Papers, ICHITA 2019
Dear colleagues,
You are cordially invited to submit your recent research work to the Fifth International Conference on Health Information Technology Advancement (ICHITA-2019), which is to be held on Oct. 31 – Nov. 1, 2019 at Kalamazoo, Michigan. The conference theme of this year is focused on Transitioning to Smart Care, Challenges, Strategies and Solutions. Due to fast advances in the health information technologies (HIT), a wide range of research topics is sought after and more information on the suggested topics can be found below.
Our conference is biennial and has been held since 2011 at the Western Michigan University. In this year, we will have keynote speakers and HIT professionals from clinical informatics, healthcare services, healthcare analytics and medical engineering fields. We expect participation of a broad range of health IT stakeholders including academic, industry practitioners, health service providers, business/healthcare/engineering students. More details about the ICHITA-2019 and previous events can be found at https://wmich.edu/ichita/.
CALL FOR PAPERS
As we have done in the past, all accepted full research papers will be published in Transactions of ICHITA, and the two papers, one theoretical and one practice, will be awarded by the ICHITA, and the best five papers will be published (with necessary revisions) in a special issue of International Journal of Health Information Systems and Informatics.
To enhance research sharing and academic networking, we also accept “research-in-progress” papers and research abstracts, the former will give a short presentation, and the latter for posters to be presented on site.
Full paper submissions will undergo a double-blind review process. At least one of the authors of the accepted paper must register to attend the conference. If accepted, referee papers will be published in the conference transactions and will be scheduled for presentation during the concurrent presentation sessions. Acceptance of abstracts and papers are subject to final approval by the program track chairs.
