Abstract:
In January 1993 the Joint European Project “Education in the methodology field of
health care”, EuroMISE (European Education in Medical Informatics, Statistics and
Epidemiology) started under the European TEMPUS program. Training and education in
EuroMISE consist of three overlapping methodology branches: medical informatics, medical
statistics, and epidemiology. A teaching scheme has been developed in cooperation
between Charles University, Prague, and EC universities and organizations involved
in the EuroMISE project. One of the main tasks of the project is to design a modularly
structured EuroMISE course set, to develop teaching materials and tools in the English
language, and to link the EuroMISE project with other programs and projects in this
field. Running EuroMISE courses, firstly for university teachers, will have a major
impact in disseminating the acquired knowledge and skills.
