Mission

The mission of the Division of Informatics, Clinical Epidemiology and Translational Data Science (DICE) is to discover and synthesize knowledge and clinical best practices; to innovate and accelerate methods and technologies; and to disseminate these to improve clinical care delivery and outcomes.

Vision

We envision that the Division will be the leader in multi-disciplinary methods and applications to build just, equitable, and healthy communities through education, collaboration, pragmatic innovation, and transformation of data science, informatics, and evidence synthesis.

The Division of Informatics, Clinical Epidemiology and Translational Data Science (DICE) is one of the divisions in the Department of Medicine (DoM) in the School of Medicine at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). DICE provides research, education, and service in the areas of clinical informatics, clinical epidemiology, and bioinformatics/computational biomedicine. DICE programs are recognized internationally for their accomplishment and innovation.

DICE is housed in the Biomedical Information Communication Center (BICC) on the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) Marquam Hill campus. The department consists of about 80 faculty members, including about 40 with primary academic appointments in the department, about 20 from other OHSU departments with joint appointments, and about 20 affiliate faculty who work at healthcare institutions, companies, and other organizations outside OHSU.
