Webinar: Introduction to FHIR for Research

Toolkit

Introduction to FHIR for Research is a three-hour training course that aims to provide NIH research scientists and program officers with an understanding of how FHIR could impact their research, and how they can take advantage of it. This webinar covers the background and context of FHIR, what data and tools are available, and examples of research using FHIR. It is broken into three parts:

Part 1: Background and Context of FHIR
This section provides essential background and context on FHIR, including the history and evolution of the standard, its relation to similar frameworks, and its components and data structure.

Part 2: The FHIR Ecosystem
After discussing FHIR background, we'll next turn to discussing the broader ecosystem of FHIR systems and capabilities practitioners can hope to leverage. This section will explore the extent of systems, tools, and applications available to users.

Part 3: Working with FHIR
We will now explore a detailed set of applications for FHIR starting with a sampling of recent FHIR uses in both industry and academia. We will then provide a series of case studies leveraging both Python and R to demonstrate how FHIR can be used to extract and utilize medical data.
