The Annual iConference offers an important opportunity for information sharing among member iSchools. Proposed for iConference 09 is a Roundtable Discussion that provides a forum for information sharing about existing and planned iSchool initiatives, and discussion of opportunities related to Health and Medical Research. Because of the transdisciplinary scope of research problems and practical demands in relation to Health and Medical Research, initiatives in these areas offer significant opportunities for cross-disciplinary research collaboration and interdisciplinary partnership with other units in the development of professional training programs
