The American Medical Informatics Association's (AMIA) People and 
Organizational Working Group along with the International Medical 
Informatics Association's (IMIA) Organizational and Social Issues 
Working Group is proud to sponsor the 2011 Doctoral Consortium on 
Sociotechnical Issues in Medical Informatics 
(http://faculty.ist.psu.edu/reddy/amia/).

The Doctoral Consortium is a forum in which doctoral students can meet 
and discuss their work with each other and with a panel of experienced 
researchers. We welcome applicants from a broad range of disciplines and 
approaches that inform medical informatics, including the social 
sciences, humanities, computer and information sciences, clinical 
sciences, law, and related fields. Applicants should be past the 
candidacy stage and near their thesis proposal defense. If you would 
like to apply but do not meet this criteria, please contact the 
Consortium Chair. The Consortium committee will select approximately 
10-12 participants who will be expected to give short, informal 
presentations of their work during the Consortium.

The Consortium will be held in conjunction with the American Medical 
Informatics (AMIA) 2011 Annual Symposium in Washington DC. Besides the 
symposium, participants will also be registered for the pre-conference 
Workshop on Interactive Systems in Healthcare 2011 (WISH 2011) 
(https://wish2011.wordpress.com/) which will take place on Oct. 22. 
Participants will be expected to present their research at the Poster 
Reception at the workshop.

There are a variety of benefits to students participating in the 
Consortium including:

1. Participants will receive valuable feedback on their research from 
both their peers and faculty mentors.
2. The Consortium will pay AMIA conference and WISH registration fees. 
We will also reimburse a portion of the hotel and airfare for domestic 
(US) participants.
3. Accepted papers will have an extended abstract printed in the AMIA 
advance and onsite programs. The papers will also be listed on the 
consortium website.
4. Participants will have the opportunity to meet and network with peers 
and senior AMIA members.
5. Participants will be able to present their work at the Poster 
Reception at WISH 2011 for feedback from workshop participants.

The Consortium will be held on October 21, 2011 in conjunction with the 
American Medical Informatics (AMIA) 2011 Annual Symposium 
(https://www.amia.org/amia2011)in Washington DC Oct 22-26.
