From the preface of Hans van der Slikke (SIM Chair):
Society for the Internet in Medicine
This year the MedNet congress has four tracks, of which every track has its own motto:
1. Internet for Informaticians and Clinicians – “Towards the new web technologies”
– Shared information in patient care and follow up
– Healthcare quality and standards
– Internet in health management and administration
2. Internet for Teachers – “Towards effective use of new e-learning tools”
– Knowledge maps – the modern ways of lectures preparation
– Practical experiences with virtual medical schools
– Internet in continuing medical education
3. Internet for Librarians – “Towards the new roles of medical libraries”
– Web mediated evidence based information and multicentre medical research
– E-publishing – the problems and special questions
– The evidence of national web resources and Information retrieval technology
4. Internet for Web providers – “Towards the new ways in web presentation”
– Quality of web information for health care
– The responsible patient online
– Internet and developing world
These tracks, however, have smaller and bigger side-tracks and crossings and all lead to one goal:
better and more effective healthcare for everybody by empowering the citizen or patient and supporting the medical professional. Or: “How can the Internet help the doctor to be a better doctor and the patient to be a better patient?”
All abstract of the oral presentations are available for free (OPEN ACCESS) via "Technology and Health Care"
