[Informatics in the School of Medicine of the University of Chile. I. Origin and evolution of biomedical computing in Chile].

In the sixties and seventies, the School of Medicine of the University of Chile was the first Chilean institution to incorporate computers into academic endeavors through its own Computer Center. Later, professors were marginated from policy making, which became oriented to administrative goals, but they compensated that situation with the easy access to personal computers brought about by present technology. In 1986, when School authorities were again elected by the faculty staff, professors were able to participate again in a committee designing projects in this area. Current development at the School of Medicine include a proliferation of personal computers, the implementation of a computer network with access to medical data bases, and a growing number of applications in the fields of research and teaching. In the near future, due to the accessibility of telecommunications and computers, these advancements should have an impact on the whole biomedical community, a situation that would restore, after many years, the traditional role of the University of Chile in the life of the country.

[Informatics in mental sciences: clinical data management and "expert systems"].

The role of information systems and particularly that of expert systems in medicine is analysed in brief. It is pointed out that, unlike other branches of medicine, in mental sciences the role of expert systems has so far been more limited because of certain intrinsic problems of programming on the one hand, and the scientific models of the psychiatrist on the other. An improvement in information technology and programming languages and better empirical classification of mental disturbances could provide useful bases for the realisation of computerised consultancy systems in mental sciences.
