Abstract
In this short paper we have resumed a keynote speech, to be given at the ISMDA 2000 conference, about data mining research and tools. We state a brief summary of the main concepts associated to data mining and some of the methods and tools used in the scientific world, mainly those that can associated to medical applications. Finally, some practical projects and conclusions are presented.
