The Department of Health Record Informatics has missions to construct 1) the informational infrastructure for regional cooperation in clinical medicine and welfare, 2) the informational infrastructure for the health checkup and cohort studies on the basis of personal genomes that helps us and our children to retrieve healthy lives after the disaster, and 3) the integrated database for personal information on medical treatments, health checkups, and personal genomic variations in application of the highest technology. The database is expected to be the next generation biomedical informational infrastructure including a biobank which opens our outcome to the public under the completely secured protection. At the construction of the informational infrastructure for regional cooperation in clinical medicine and welfare, we promote a widespread use of Information and Communication Technology for regional clinical medicine and welfare, collaborating with Miyagi Medical and Welfare Information Network established in November of 2011. Tsunami of the Great East Japan Earthquake elucidated the fact that the loss of medical information immediately disables all the medical services, which should never happen again. We are working enthusiastically for more use of Information and Communication Technology in developing the medical network operated by comprehensive regional cooperation so as to enable a healthier society than before the disaster.
