Will Collective Wisdom Improve Our Individual Health?

“I told you about the Harvard professor who wants 100,000 people to add their health information to a database to help unlock the genetic code. He’s looking for collective data to create opportunities for new medical applications.”

Is Health 2.0 a Fad?

“If Health 2.0/Medicine2.0/Web 2.0 is a fad, then we must also conclude that the World Wide Web is a fad. Of course, it is not. Rather, we are witnessing the impact of the natural evolution of Web technologies upon diverse aspects of health care delivery.”

Medicine 2.0

“The Medicine 2.0 Congress was held last week in Toronto, Canada. I attended on my way back from the AMEE 2008 conference in Prague.
My role was to chair the session on medical education on day 1 and to present 2 talks on day 2, one on mobile computing and one on online communities.
The event was a great opportunity to catch up with my health informatics colleagues and meet face-to-face with previously only online acquaintances.”

Medicine 2.0: Social Networking, Collaboration, Participation, Apomediation, and Openness

“In a very significant development for eHealth, broad adoption of Web 2.0 technologies and approaches coincides with the more recent emergence of Personal Health Application Platforms and Personally Controlled Health Records such as Google Health, Microsoft HealthVault, and Dossia. “Medicine 2.0” applications, services and tools are defined as Web-based services for health care consumers, caregivers, patients, health professionals, and biomedical researchers, that use Web 2.0 technologies and/or semantic web and virtual reality approaches to enable and facilitate specifically 1) social networking, 2) participation, 3) apomediation, 4) openness and 5) collaboration, within and between these user groups. The Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR) publishes a Medicine 2.0 theme issue and sponsors a conference on “How Social Networking and Web 2.0 changes Health, Health Care, Medicine and Biomedical Research”, to stimulate and encourage research in these five areas.”

What is Medicine 2.0?

“Technology in the health care system is constantly evolving, creating more opportunities for development and, increasingly, technology is being used to involve patients in their own care. When I heard that the MaRS Centre was playing host to the Medicine 2.0 Conference in September (papers for this conference are due next week), I wanted to find out more about this model.
I caught up with the Dr. Gunther Eysenbach, Senior Scientist at the Centre for Global eHealth Innovation, to talk about Medicine 2.0, how and why it is important and how it is relevant to scientists, entrepreneurs and the rest of us.”
