Les grandes études en population s’accompagnent de plus en plus souvent de la constitution d’une biobanque, associant aux données cliniques, biologiques, environnementales et comportementales collectées la conservation d’échantillons biologiques. Les biobanques constituent ainsi un élément indispensable des dispositifs d’information sur l’état de santé lié aux phénotypes, aux génotypes et aux facteurs d’environnement. La conservation des informations recueillies devient alors indispensable, permettant de disposer de données déjà collectées pour apporter une réponse rapide lorsque surgit une nouvelle question de santé publique ou pour mesurer les paramètres biologiques à l’aide de méthodes plus performantes qu’au moment du recueil des informations ou selon de nouveaux de paramètres. L’objectif de ce livre est de faire le point sur les principaux aspects de la constitution, du fonctionnement et de l’utilisation de biobanques associées à des études en population générale et d’apporter une aide pour l’établissement du cahier des charges d’une biobanque. L’ouvrage comporte : des recommandations générales qui reflètent l’état de l’art en matière d’ingénierie de biobanques ; des éléments relatifs aux principaux choix stratégiques concernant la structure chargée de la conservation des échantillons biologiques et les options techniques pouvant être retenues pour le traitement et la conservation des échantillons ; une présentation de l’infrastructure nationale BIOBANQUES, qui coordonne l’ensemble des biobanques en France et assure le lien avec les structure scientifiques équivalentes à l’échelle européenne et internationale. Cet ouvrage s’adresse : aux médecins et chercheurs impliqués dans la collecte et l’exploitation des ressources biologiques.

Biobanking, i.e. storage of biological samples or data emerging from such samples for diagnostic, therapeutic or research purposes, has been going on for decades. However, it is only since the mid 1990s that these activities have become the subject of considerable public attention, concern and debate. This shift in climate is due to several factors. The purpose of this book is to investigate some of the ethical, legal and social challenges raised by research biobanking in its different modern forms and formats. The issues raised by research biobanking in its modern form can be divided into four main clusters: how biological materials are entered into the bank; research biobanks as institutions; under what conditions researchers can access materials in the bank, and problems concerning ownership of biological materials and of intellectual property arising from such materials; and how the information is collected and stored, e.g. access-rights, disclosure, confidentiality, data security and data protection.

Combining and integrating cross-institutional data remains a challenge for both researchers and those involved in patient care. Patient-generated data can contribute precious information to healthcare professionals by enabling monitoring under normal life conditions and also helping patients play a more active role in their own care. This book presents the proceedings of MEDINFO 2019, the 17th World Congress on Medical and Health Informatics, held in Lyon, France, from 25 to 30 August 2019. The theme of this year’s conference was ‘Health and Wellbeing: E-Networks for All’, stressing the increasing importance of networks in healthcare on the one hand, and the patient-centered perspective on the other. Over 1100 manuscripts were submitted to the conference and, after a thorough review process by at least three reviewers and assessment by a scientific program committee member, 285 papers and 296 posters were accepted, together with 47 podium abstracts, 7 demonstrations, 45 panels, 21 workshops and 9 tutorials. All accepted paper and poster contributions are included in these proceedings. The papers are grouped under four thematic tracks: interpreting health and biomedical data, supporting care delivery, enabling precision medicine and public health, and the human element in medical informatics. The posters are divided into the same four groups. The book presents an overview of state-of-the-art informatics projects from multiple regions of the world; it will be of interest to anyone working in the field of medical informatics.

Digital health and medical informatics have grown in importance in recent years, and have now become central to the provision of effective healthcare around the world. This book presents the proceedings of the 30th Medical Informatics Europe conference (MIE). This edition of the conference, hosted by the European Federation for Medical Informatics (EFMI) since the 1970s, was due to be held in Geneva, Switzerland in April 2020, but as a result of measures to prevent the spread of the Covid19 pandemic, the conference itself had to be cancelled. Nevertheless, because this collection of papers offers a wealth of knowledge and experience across the full spectrum of digital health and medicine, it was decided to publish the submissions accepted in the review process and confirmed by the Scientific Program Committee for publication, and these are published here as planned. The 232 papers are themed under 6 section headings: biomedical data, tools and methods; supporting care delivery; health and prevention; precision medicine and public health; human factors and citizen centered digital health; and ethics, legal and societal aspects. A 7th section deals with the Swiss personalized health network, and section 8 includes the 125 posters accepted for the conference. Offering an overview of current trends and developments in digital health and medical informatics, the book provides a valuable information resource for researchers and health practitioners alike.
