DESCRIPTION
Medical informatics has emerged as a new discipline within healthcare in the 21st century.  In 2011, the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) recognized clinical informatics as a clinical subspecialty. Knowledge and skills in clinical informatics are widely acknowledged as crucial to future success in patient care. The Clinical Informatics Grand Rounds series completed its first couple months' presentations (July - September, 2014) with positive feedback and increasing attendance.
