The division offers a four week rotation introducing students to various aspects of medical informatics including productivity tools, medical literature searching and retrieval, management and analysis of data, on-line database services and medical office management. Patient simulations, epidemiological programs and question banks are but a few of the resources available in the computer lab. The lab supports both PC and Macintosh environments. Access to much of the software and resources is available from home via modem. The medical school network resides on the campus fiber optic backbone with remote access via microwave bridge.
Medical literature is available from CD-ROM servers from home or computer lab.
