U.S. Army TATRC ... "Mobile Health: The Use of Cell Phones for Healthcare Applications.”

Colleagues,

Since I returned from the American Telemedicine Association (ATA) meeting in May 2010, a number of MedTech-IQ members have requested information on the outstanding U.S. Army TATRC (Telemedicine and Advanced Technology Research Center) symposium on "Mobile Health: The Use of Cell Phones for Healthcare Applications.”...

... I have sent links to those who have asked. But, after sending the link to another member today, I thought it might be useful to share this information with the entire global MedTech-IQ membership representing over 30 countries.

... See below Speakers, with links to their Abstracts and Full Presentations ...

ENJOY!
