Special track on FLOSS-HC projects and initiatives at Med-e-Tel 2010

Benefits of Free/Libre Open Source Software in Health Care (FLOSS-HC)

Aims of the session:

One of the main goals of the FLOSS-HC track is to serve as a forum for all people and organizations interested in FLOSS-HC, as a meeting place for old and new FLOSS-HC enthusiasts and a place for exchanging ideas, knowledge and experience and setting up new collaborations. Over the years, Med-e-Tel has shown its dedication in addressing the needs of people from all over the world, including developing countries, but also providing industrial partners a place for networking, education and presentation of their work to a worldwide audience.
