Educational Landscape of Biomedical Informatics in Croatia: Who Are the Teachers and What Are Their Attitudes
Lack of experts with complementary competences in the field of information technology as well as medicine and health care has been recognised as an important obstacle to successful computerisation of the health care system. Using a questionnaire survey, we aimed to describe the current educational landscape of biomedical informatics in Croatia, focussing on teachers' profiles and attitudes about existing educational opportunities in the field. Our findings show that Croatian institutions of higher education should better recognise the need for education in biomedical informatics. Dedicated programs need to be established and teacher force strengthened. Joint efforts of existing teachers—institutionalised through a working group focussing on education within the Croatian Society for Medical Informatics, for which strong support exists—might contribute to recognition of the field and improvement of educational opportunities.
