We would like to invite you to submit a paper to the International Conference on Health Informatics (HEALTHINF 2009), which has currently an open call for papers. HEALTHINF 2009 will be held in Porto (Portugal) next year, on January 14-17.

The purpose of the International Conference on Health Informatics is to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in the application of information and communication technologies (ICT) to healthcare and medicine in general and to the specialized support to persons with special needs in particular.
Databases, networking, graphical interfaces, intelligent decision support systems and specialized programming languages are just a few of the technologies currently used in medical informatics. Mobility and ubiquity in healthcare systems, standardization of technologies and procedures, certification, privacy are some of the issues that medical informatics professionals and the ICT industry in general need to address in order to further promote ICT in healthcare.
Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, in paper and in CD-ROM support. The proceedings will be indexed by several major international indexers, including INSPEC, DBLP and ISI Proceedings*SM.
Additionaly, a selection of the best papers of the conference may be published in a book, by Springer. Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference.

Please check further details at the HEALTHINF 2009 conference web site (http://www.healthinf.org). There you will find detailed information about the conference structure and its main topic areas. This conference is co-located and part of the Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies (BIOSTEC www.biostec.org)

Workshops and special sessions are also invited. If you wish to propose a workshop or a special session, for example based on the results of a specific research project, please contact the secretariat.
