Renato Marcos Endrizzi Sabbatini (born 20 February 1947, Campinas) is a retired professor at the Department of Biomedical Engineering and at the State University of Campinas Institute of Biology. He received a B.Sc. in Biomedical Sciences from Medical School of the University of São Paulo and a doctorate in behavioral neuroscience in 1977, followed by postdoctoral work at the Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry's Primate Behavior Department.[1] He founded the Center for Biomedical Informatics,[citation needed] and helped create the Brazilian Society for Health Informatics.[2]

Sabbatini received the 1992 Prêmio José Reis de Divulgação Científica award for popular science writing,[3] and was named one of Info Exame Magazine's "50 Champions of Innovation" for 2007.[4] He is currently president of the Edumed Institute for Education in Medicine and Health, a "not-for-profit educational, research and development institution."[5]

Professor Sabbatini is a Fellow Elect (Inaugural Class) of the International Academy of Health Sciences Informatics,[6] established by the International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA), and a Fellow Elect of the American College of Medical Informatics,[7] established by the American Medical Informatics Association.
