Abstract
- The IMIA History Working Group has as its first goal the editing of a volume of contributions from pioneers and leaders in the field of biomedical and health informatics (BMHI) to commemorate the 50 th anniversary of IMIA's predecesor IFIP-TC4. This paper describes how the IMIA History WG evolved from an earlier Taskforce and has focused on producing the edited book of original contributions. We describe its proposed outline of objectives for the personal stories and national and regional society naratives, together with some comments on the evolution of Medinfo meeting contributions over the years, to provide a reference source for the early motivations of the scientific, clinical, educational and professional changes that have influenced the historical course of our field.
