#ClinIC18
The NHS Digital Clinical Informatics Congress is a key event for frontline clinical leaders with an interest in health informatics to meet, network and learn about the latest developments around clinical informatics.
Taking place on Wednesday 26 September, this free-to-attend congress is hosted by the Clinical Leadership Team at NHS Digital and NHS England and co-located with the UK Health Show at ExCeL London.
The Clinical Informatics Congress is the only event officially led by NHS Digital and NHS England that focuses on the strategic direction of clinical informatics and development of clinical informaticians across health and social care.
The event will feature high level discussion from NHS leadership on policy and strategy for the widespread adoption of clinical informatics. It will be complimented by practical workshops featuring local case studies that will give delegates the knowledge and understanding to take back to their organisations and start enacting real change.
