With the completion of human and model organism genomes, and the increasing utilization of biomedical computational methods, translational bioinformatics is evolving rapidly into a complex multidisciplinary field encompassing nearly all areas of biological, biomedical and clinical research. Indeed, biomolecular and clinical informatics, statistical genetics and genomic medicine, are poised to jointly play an increasing role in accelerating the translation of knowledge discovery from genome scale studies to effective treatment and tailored disease management and health care. The summit covers the specific and tractable needs of translational bioinformatics and more importantly, identifies challenges facing this emerging research field showcasing the synergy between the clinical informatics and bioinformatics communities.
