Many of the trainees are physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and other health professionals who see the career opportunities and challenges at the intersections of biomedicine, information science, computer science, and communications technologies.
Thus the basic-research activities in the field generally result from the identification of a problem in the real world of health or biomedicine for which an informatics solution is sought (see text).
Thus, for example, successful medical informatics research will often draw upon and contribute to computer science, but it may also be closely related to the decision sciences (probability theory, decision analysis, or the psychology of human problem solving), to cognitive science, to information sciences, or to the management sciences (Figure 1.18).
