Objective:
To describe potential areas of collaboration between Medical Informatics (BI) and Bioinformatics (BI) and their effects on planning future work in both disciplines.
Methods:
Some reflections on the objectives and rationale underpinning MI and BI are given, and preliminary results from the BIOINFOMED workgroup, supported by the European Commission, are introduced.
Results:
Applications from both subfields suggest topics for sharing and exchange between the subfields within the emerging field of Biomedical Informatics.
Conclusions:
We suggest how the nature and degree of collaboration between the sub-disciplines can impact future work in molecular medicine.
