Faculty, trainees, staff, and collaborators of the Center for Improving the Public's Health through Informatics (CIPHI) conduct population-based informatics research across multiple disciplines under informatics. We also have a strong affiliation with Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI) and the VA Tennessee Valley Healthcare System, which has created this multidisciplinary and collaborative center. We also have a strong relationship with the Middle Tennessee Research Institute (MTRI).
