The 35th Medical Informatics Europe Conference, MIE 2025, was held in Glasgow, Scotland, UK, from the 19–21 May 2025. The Conference was co-hosted by the British Computer Society (BCS) and the European Federation for Medical Informatics (EFMI). The Scientific Programme Committee was co-chaired by Dr. Elisavet Andrikopoulou and Assistant Professor Parisis Gallos.

The theme of MIE 2025 was ‘Intelligent Health Systems – From Technology to Data and Knowledge’. In an era in which artificial intelligence (AI) is once again being over-hyped as a panacea, the purpose of this theme serves to emphasise that technology is a necessary but insufficient dependency for intelligent health systems. Technology must not only provide functionality for healthcare processes, but also enable high quality data capture and analysis. Whether structured or unstructured, data does not of itself provide unmediated insights, but requires the input of skilled humans who understand context and purpose and can use analytics to draw meaningful conclusions to effect improvement. Iteratively, we can derive knowledge from the synthesis of operational data and research evidence that will become the basis for better practice as part of a learning health system.

These proceedings present the current trends in health informatics. Contributions cover topics like learning health systems, education, data science and visualization, information systems, human factors, social and organisational issues, computable knowledge and decision support, AI, automation and robotics in healthcare, natural language processing and generation, personal health records and mHealth, population health, precision care, one health, one digital health and climate changes, and other topics related to health informatics.

The proceedings are published by IOS Press as an e-book in the open access series Studies in Health Technology and Informatics. Volumes in the Studies in Health Technology and Informatics series are submitted (for evaluation) for indexing by MEDLINE/PubMed; Web of Science: Conference Proceedings Citation Index – Science (CPCI-S) and Book Citation Index – Science (BKCI-S); Google Scholar; Scopus, and EMCare.
