Introduction

In March 2006, the VA Information Resource Center (VIReC), with assistance from the Center for Information Dissemination and Education Resources (CIDER), launched two cyber seminar series:

Clinical Informatics Cyber Seminar Series

These cyber seminars present expert discussion of key issues in clinical informatics for VA researchers. Join experts from VIReC and guest speakers for these lively and informative presentations. Objectives for the series are to

  • learn about applications in clinical informatics in research and quality improvement efforts, both VA and non-VA efforts; and
  • understand approaches for evaluating clinical informatics and IT interventions.

Seminars are held on the third Tuesday of the month from 12 – 1 pm (Eastern).

VA Databases and Methods Cyber Seminar Series

This series assists VA researchers in accessing and using VA databases for research. Faculty from VIReC and guest lecturers present these informational seminars to assist VA researchers in accessing and using VA databases for research.
