Mission & Diversity Statements

The mission of the Optimizing with Applied Clinical Informatics Models and Methods (OPTACIMM) Center is to use informatics to advance healthcare delivery and outcomes for individuals and communities.

For us, diversity and inclusion are paramount. We do not tolerate, and strive to eliminate, bias based on race, color, religion, creed, sex, age, national origin, citizenship status, disability, qualified veteran status, genetic information, marital status, sexual orientation, and gender identity. 

Ours is a culture built on teamwork. For us to excel, all members must feel that they are operating in an inclusive environment that welcomes and supports differences, and that encourages input from all perspectives. We have the right to expect a workplace where our lives’ richness and experience are welcomed and valued.
