Welcome
The Children's Hospital Informatics Program (CHIP) is a multidisciplinary applied research and education program at Boston Children's Hospital. CHIP investigators work at the intersection of information science, healthcare and biomedical discovery, advancing the state-of-the-art in functional genomics, personalized medicine, biomedical research collaboration and public health.
Since 1995, CHIP researchers have worked to set the highest standards for patient autonomy and privacy. Our "Instrumenting the Healthcare Enterprise" initiatives focus on accelerating collaborative research across institutions, and on providing tools and services directly to patients, allowing them to be become more active, engaged participants in both their own healthcare and the broader research community.

CLARITY challenge winners are announced.
Clinical-grade whole-genome genomics that works. This is in follow-up to a conference we led with the Center for Biomedical Informatics at Harvard Medical School and then a contest led by Boston Children's Hospital.
Interesting coverage at Bio-IT and Time.
The era of computationally-backed clinical-grade whole genome reporting is coming into its own.
