In January 2018, the AMIA Board approved a resolution to launch an Applied Informatics Recognition Program, to recognize members who apply informatics skills and knowledge within their professional setting, who have demonstrated professional achievement and leadership, and who have a sustained commitment to the betterment of AMIA.

The resulting Fellows of AMIA, or FAMIA, was established in May 2018, following several months of deliberation by an interdisciplinary Advisory Group of AMIA members to define the FAMIA Eligibility Criteria.

These deliberations reaffirmed that FAMIA be inclusive – balancing the needs of physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and others working within clinical informatics settings, with the needs of professionals working in public health, clinical research, and other areas where informatics is applied to practice.
