The book provides step-by-step instruction on how to use technology and implement best practices for this use in the real world.
Topics include legal issues for computer users in health-related fields, hardware, software, malware, electronic spreadsheets, data visualization, and relational database management using Microsoft Office 2013. The book also addresses health-related research on-line and discerning whether or not information found on the Internet is scientifically valid.
Students will also learn about Boolean Logic as applied to databases and online literature searches, choosing and buying software, and Geographic Information Systems. Each chapter features an "Apply Your Knowledge" section with hands-on exercises that allow students to immediately implement target concepts and skills.
Computer Technology for Health Professionals is a common sense approach to using both hardware and software. The book is designed for courses in bioinformatics and computer proficiency for health sciences and public health.
