Perioperative Informatics Fellowship

We offer a one-year, non-ACGME accredited fellowship in perioperative informatics. The fellowship can be tailored to the specific needs and interests of the fellow, and is designed to provide experience across a broad array of perioperative informatics, including:

• Database structure and design
• SQL programming and "big data" analytics
• Data visualization and presentation
• Data security and compliance
• Study design and analysis of large data sets
• Integration of data into care improvement efforts
• Clinical Decision Support

While there are no specific technical pre-requisites, it is expected that fellowship applicants have at least basic familiarity with relational databases and computer programming, including a working knowledge of SQL and ideally at least one other software language. A fellow can expect to be the primary investigator in at least one research study or quality improvement project utilizing informatics techniques during the course of training, and by the end of the fellowship, the successful fellow can expect to have the necessary skills to be proficient as an independently functioning informaticist.
