New Logo Design wanted for University of California San Diego Division of Biomedical Informatics

University of California San Diego Division of Biomedical Informatics

biomedical informatics is the study of information and computation in biology and health.
- Located in La Jolla - I can see the ocean from campus
- wants to facilitate sharing of data for research purposes - so much of research is hindered, because sharing clinical and biological data is difficult, so we are trying to come up with processes and software to help assist data sharing
- involved in global health - want to make a difference through informatics bringing information and tools to people in disadvantaged communities across the world (Mozambique right now, perhaps Kuwait next)
- involved in training students, research, and applications

target audience: medical doctors, researchers, computer scientists. There are many biomedical informatics divisions and departments, so the name itself is not as unique as the specific goals of our division at UCSD (i.e., there will be many DBMI logos)
