The goal of the event was clear: to strengthen the scientific exchange in the German-speaking area on this topic. Host and director of the Institute for Medical Informatics (IMI), founded in 2021, Prof. Martin Dugas, looks back on a successful premiere:   *"In medicine, information systems are an important basis for excellent patient care and research. Digital medicine can only be successfully implemented if very good information systems are available. Today, however, there is often still not enough high-quality structured patient data to make efficient use of them. We want to change that."*   Click here for further information: [https://www.klinikum.uni-heidelberg.de/en/kliniken-institute/institute/institut-fuer-medizinische-informatik](https://www.klinikum.uni-heidelberg.de/en/kliniken-institute/institute/institut-fuer-medizinische-informatik)  ## Leave a Comment ## Related Posts ### [18 Jul, 23 15:10 PM Save the date: 1st Münster Digital Health Symposium](https://www.highmed.org/news/1st-muenster-digital-health-symposium?hsLang=en) ### [4 Jun, 20 10:00 AM Smart Infection Control System version 1 for COVID-19 available](https://www.highmed.org/news/highmed-smart-infection-control-system-version-1-for-covid-19-available?hsLang=en) ### [9 Mar, 21 9:00 AM COVID-19 pilot study from Münster was published](https://www.highmed.org/news/publication-of-a-covid19-pilot-study?hsLang=en) ![image006](https://www.highmed.org/hs-fs/hubfs/image006.png?width=2203&name=image006.png)   #### Contact Us [info@highmed-lehre.de](mailto:-info@highmed-lehre.de)  #### Follow Us © 2026 HiGHmed // Medical Informatics - [Privacy Policy](https://www.highmed.org/en/privacy-policy) - [Imprint](https://www.highmed.org/en/imprint) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "dateModified" : "2024-10-01", "datePublished" : "2024-10-01", "headline" : "1st Heidelberg Spring Symposium on Medical Informatics", "image" : [ "https://19954885.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/19954885/Dugas_IMI_1100x620.png" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://www.highmed.org/news/1st-heidelberg-spring-symposium-on-medical-informatics", "@type" : "WebPage" } } ```
