Biography
William
Hersh, MD, FACP, FACMI, FAMIA, FIAHSI is Professor and Chair
of the Department
of Medical Informatics & Clinical Epidemiology in
the School
of Medicine at Oregon
Health & Science University (OHSU) in Portland,
Oregon, USA. Dr. Hersh is a leader and
innovator in biomedical informatics both in education and
research.
In education, he serves as Director of OHSU's Biomedical
Informatics Graduate Program, which includes two
master's degrees (research and professional), a PhD degree,
and Graduate Certificate. Dr. Hersh also conceptualized and
implemented the first offering of the American
Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) 10x10 ("ten by
ten") program, which has provided education to nearly
3000 health care professionals and others in biomedical
informatics. He also serves as Co-Editor with Robert Hoyt,
MD of the textbook, Health Informatics: Practical Guide,
Seventh Edition (Lulu.com, 2018), which is available
in paper
and eBook
format.
Dr. Hersh also serves as Director of OHSU's
Research Training Program in Biomedical Informatics and
Data Science, which is funded by a training
grant from the National Library of Medicine, and as
Associate Program Director of OHSU's ACGME-accredited Clinical
Informatics Fellowship. Dr. Hersh
has also been involved in other global efforts to expand
informatics capacity through education, collaborating
with colleagues at Hospital
Italiano of Buenos Aires, Argentina, in Singapore, and
elsewhere.
He also co-leads efforts to teach clinical informatics to
other health professions students. He helped define
competencies and shape the curriculum for OHSU medical
students. He has also been involved in the teaching of
nursing, graduate basic science, and undergraduate health
science majors (at Portland State University).
Dr. Hersh has also made many contributions in research. His
research originally focused in the area of information
retrieval, where he has authored over 200 scientific
papers as well as the book, Information Retrieval: A Biomedical and Health
Perspective (Springer, 2020), now in its fourth
edition, available from Springer
(including SpringerLink)
or Amazon,
and which has an associated
Web site. Dr. Hersh is also active in
clinical research informatics. He served as Director of the
Biomedical Informatics Program of the Oregon
Clinical & Translational Research Institute (OCTRI)
from 2006-2014 and was Chair of the National Informatics
Steering Committee of the Clinical &
Translational Science Award (CTSA) program of the
National Institutes of Health from 2006-2008.
Dr. Hersh
has won numerous awards for his innovations. These include
the OHSU Faculty Senate Distinguished Faculty Award for
outstanding teaching in 2007; the 2008 AMIA Donald A.B.
Lindberg Award for Innovation in Informatics; being named
among the Modern Healthcare Top 25 Clinical Informaticists
in 2010, 2011, and 2012; and the HIMSS Physician
Leadership Award in 2015. He is an elected Fellow of the American
College of Medical Informatics, the American
Medical Informatics Association, and the American
College of Physicians. He was among the inaugural
121 elected members of the International
Academy of Health Sciences Informatics and was recently
elected its President.
Dr. Hersh also maintains the Informatics
Professor blog and the What is Biomedical &
Health Informatics? Web site.
Dr. Hersh obtained his B.S. in Biology from the University
of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana in 1980 and his M.D. from
the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1984. After
finishing a residency in Internal Medicine at University of
Illinois Hospital in Chicago in 1987, he completed a
Fellowship in Medical Informatics at Harvard University in
1990. Dr. Hersh has been at OHSU
since 1990.
