第一屆亞太「傳染病訊息學暨生物偵測」國際研討會(BioSecure 2009)
今年(2009/09/23-2009/09/25)臺灣大學流行病學研究所與美國亞歷桑納大學在
台灣舉辦第一屆亞洲「傳染病訊息學暨生物偵測」國際研討會(BioSecure 2009),
此會議為國際電機電子工程師學會(Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers, IEEE)所屬的兩個研究委員會委託舉辦(SMC,ITS)。今年適逢H1N1全球流
感病毒流行,本次大會主題特別以國際合作的觀點來討論全球疾病偵測的策略,所包含
的四大研討方向包含了:
1. 豬流感、人流感、禽流感在亞洲各國的防疫經驗;
2. 公共衛生資訊學的應用;
3. 新興的資訊監測工具;
4. 國際個案經驗交流。
期望透過研討會的交流讓熟悉資訊技術(IT)與實際參與公衛防疫實務的人才進行
交流,期能讓台灣扮演亞洲地區傳染病訊息學研究與生物偵測的領導角色,發揮地區影
響力,並為推動全球公共衛生防疫期能具有實質的貢獻。歡迎有興趣的師生報名參加,
