Welcome to the Integrated Advanced Information Management Systems!
“IAIMS are organization-wide mechanisms that use computer networks to link and relate
the published biomedical knowledge base with individual and institutional databases
and information files, within and external to an institution. The long-term goal of IAIMS
is a comprehensive and convenient information management system, one that brings
useful, usable knowledge to action settings in health care, education and research.”

The University of Cincinnati Medical Center was awarded IAIMS planning and modeling
grants by the National Library of Medicine in the 1980s. After more than a decade of
practicing and expanding IAIMS principles, the Medical Center began a second formal
IAIMS planning process in 2001 and submitted an IAIMS operations grant proposal in
June 2002. A National Library of Medicine Scientific Review Group conducted a site visit
on January 6, 2003. In May 2003 the National Library of Medicine awarded the University
of Cincinnati a four-year $1,600,000 IAIMS operations grant.
Our IAIMS initiative is inclusive and broad-based. Key players come from the Colleges of
Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Allied Health Sciences, Academic Information
Technology & Libraries, the Children’s Hospital Research Foundation, and the Health
Alliance of Greater Cincinnati. |
