FINAL SCHEDULE - MAY 4th, 2008, SCHI SYMPOSIUM

On May 2^nd (3:30-4:30 PST) SCHI will be holding a Virtual Cocktail Hour on our Breeze web-conferencing platform. The Symposium on the 4th will be fairly structured, so this is a great opportunity for students registered for the Symposium, to meet virtually, and get to know each other in advance of the Sunday workshop. Equally, it is also a great time to test your system with the Breeze software. We will send out Breeze access URLs

Hello all -

I have recieved a request from the Interoperability Showcase Committee that they are looking for a few volunteer docents for the e-Health Conference 2008. 

The commitment would be minimal, and would give you a great opportunity to meet lots of people.  For more information, please contact Alison Gardner (agardner {at} coachorg.com) for more details!!

The successful abstracts for the 2008 Student Research Symposium have been posted.

Please have a look.

Dr. Penny Ballem has been confirmed as this year's SCHI Symposium keynote speaker!!  She is tentatively scheduled to present at 13:00 PST on May 4th.

A Facebook group for the 'Student Collaborative in Health Informatics' has been created.  Search for it through Facebook (or click here) and see how many 'degrees of separation' you are from other students interested in Health Informatics/eHealth across Canada and the world!
