Welcome to the UCLA Informatics Wiki!

The era of blogs and wikis is upon us... Blogs, wikis, and other forms of online social networking act as valuable information channels as well as virtual "places" to interact with like-minded individuals. And though we live in an age of information abundance, even we, as information professionals, struggle to define "informatics". What better communication forum than a wiki to engage in the debate surrounding a definition of our own community? So if you find yourself either asking or answering the question "What exactly is informatics?" you've come to the right place!
