Upcoming events
Medicine 2.0 ® EUROPE , Maastricht Nov. 29-30, 2010
Medicine 2.0 is the well-reputed annual open, international conference on Web 2.0 applications in health and medicine, also known as the World Congress on Social Networking and Web 2.0 Applications in Medicine, Health, Health Care, and Biomedical Research.
The Medicine 2.0® conference – in 2008 and 2009 in Toronto – goes global and will be organized for 2010 in Europe. The University of Twente (UT), the Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre (UMCN) and the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) will host Medicine 2.0 EUROPE November 29-30, 2010 in Maastricht, The Netherlands.
With Medicine 2.0® they share the same values such as openness, a non-commercial approach, and an evidence-based content, beyond the hype often presented in health 2.0 tradeshows.
Medicine 2.0® EUROPE will be supported by the core Medicine 2.0® team in cooperation with scientists from UT, UMCN and RIVM; the website will remain at http://www.medicine20congress.com, and the submission and dissemination process will remain centralized.
Medicine 2.0 EUROPE will umbrella REshape (Fall edition, UMCN) and the ‘Supporting health by technology’ (IIIrd edition) symposium series (University of Twente, RIVM).
