Working Group: Informatics Maturity Working Group
Primary Track: Foundations
Programmatic Theme: Clinical Research Informatics

During uncertain times and periods of high-paced innovation, the notion of maturity is ever more important to ensure growth from an ad hoc state to an exemplary state of reproducible and stable functions. From their origins over 30-years ago, maturity models have been instrumental in continuously growing the field of biomedical informatics into praxis. To prepare for the research challenges of tomorrow, each institution needs to consider where they are and how they want to take steps to invest in their futures. Maturity Models provide institutions an external conceptual framework and lens by which to conduct assessments, roadmap intentional growth and developments, and inquire about status of growth in its continuum. This tutorial aims to provide 1) an introductory digest and overview of Maturity Models and their history, 2) an introduction to meta-maturity as an intercomparison across maturity model types within a particular domain, 3) a deep-dive about how recent maturity model frameworks are developed, 4) a discussion about data governance through the lens and vignettes of the three maturity models (e.g., Clinical Trials Management Ecosystem (CTME), Research Data Sharing Maturity Model (RDSMM), and Social-Environmental Determinants of Health (SEDoH) Maturity Model), and 5) discuss the considerations, challenges, and opportunities for maturity models in implementation to praxis. This tutorial is intended to be introductory. Clinician scientists, educators, leaders in healthcare or other organizations, researchers, policy makers, and IT professionals with interests in system evaluations are encouraged to attend.
