I think many people are still waiting for news from the Stanford Biosciences admission... Besides the 2 people contacted last week by phone and email, did anyone have news from the Biomedical Informatics department ?

Concerning the Biosciences Program at Stanford, and especially for the Biomedical Informatics program, I think we should also take into account the fact that last week there was the Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing in Hawaii. A fair amount of core faculty members attended this conference. That could explain why only two people have reported invitations to interview so far. But that's only an hypothesis

From what I've heard, last year 140 people applied to the Biomedical Informatics program only. 19 were invited for interviews, 7 were admitted, 6 accepted the offer (1 candidate apparently decided to go elsewhere). @dahbears: Did they call you or did they send you an email for the invitation to interviews ?
