公共卫生学与生物信息学复合型人才知识结构及培养模式

A combined public health and bioinformatics talent training model and knowledge structure

  • 摘要: 在“健康中国”战略的大背景下,公共卫生体系的构建是国家发展的重要举措之一。生物信息学的方法和技术是公共卫生体系的重要组成部分,公共卫生学与生物信息学交叉融合发展为保障民生和人民健康发挥重要的作用,也对高校人才培养提出了新要求。本文分析了所检索的中美70所高校公共卫生学与生物信息学本科复合型人才培养的模式,包括在公共卫生与预防医学专业引入生物信息学选修课程、在公共卫生学院独立开设生物信息学专业或辅修专业,以及创设结合公共卫生学与生物信息学核心知识体系的新型交叉学科专业,同时就加强我国公共卫生学与生物信息学本科复合型人才培养提出了思路和建议,包括探索和尝试双学位培养模式、构建学科交叉融合的课程体系、设立前沿技术课程,以及因地制宜发挥院校自身优势和特色,以更好地促进生物信息学融入公共卫生学教育,从而推动交叉领域的本科人才培养。

     

    Abstract: Under the “Healthy China” initiative, the development of a robust public health system is a national priority. Bioinformatics methods and technologies are integral to this system, and the integration of public health and bioinformatics plays a crucial role in safeguarding public health and well-being, presenting new demands for university education. This study analyzed undergraduate interdisciplinary training models in public health and bioinformatics across 70 universities in China and the United States. These models include incorporating bioinformatics courses into public health and preventive medicine programs, establishing independent bioinformatics majors or minors within public health schools, and creating new interdisciplinary majors that combine the core knowledge of public health and bioinformatics. This analysis revealed several approaches to enhance interdisciplinary undergraduate training in public health and bioinformatics in China. The study proposes strategies and recommendations for strengthening undergraduate interdisciplinary talent cultivation in public health and bioinformatics in China, including exploring dual-degree programs, developing integrated curricula, offering cutting-edge technology courses, and leveraging the unique strengths and characteristics of different institutions to better integrate bioinformatics into public health education, thereby promoting undergraduate talent cultivation in this interdisciplinary field.
