Social Media in health, Health & Wellness Management, Leading Edge technologies are the top 3 ideas you all voted on. Our March meetup brings yet another star lineup of speakers that addresses some of the topics above:

Steven Krein & Unity Stoakes from OrganizedWisdom will present on how their company provides hand-crafted search result pages called WisdomCards™ to help the patients.

OrganizedWisdom was named to PC Magazine's list of Top Websites of 2008 and helped ignite the Health 2.0 revolution with several “firsts” including the first company to assemble a team of health guides and physicians to organize the world’s best health wisdom from across the Web.

Today, OrganizedWisdom continues to bring innovation to online health care by leveraging social media and the power of collaboration technologies to improve the quality of health search.

Our next speaker, Gilles Frydman is a president and founder of Acor.org (Association of Cancer Online Resources). Gilles is a pioneer of Medical Social Networks with 13 years experience running a large system of cancer online communities. He is a frequent speaker at many conferences. No Health 2.0 conference is complete if he is not on one of the panels :)
His talk will be on "The power of the patient narratives" and not focused on the future but what can a patient do today!!!

Agenda for March Meetup:
6:30 - 7:00pm Networking (Some healthy snacks and drinks)
7:00 - 7:30pm OrganizedWisdom - Steven Krein, Unity Stoakes, Founders
7:30 - 8:00pm "The power of the patient narratives", Gilles Frydman, Acor.org President & Founder

  “ The meeting was good. However, I think Gills from ACOR was a little rude and interrupted Unity too much to make his own points. He was not prepared to give a good presentation. At the end of the meeting i still did not understand why ACOR is having problemm recruiting more participants. Maybe its because they ar interrupted too much when trying to learn more about the site/service. Open discussion and free flow of thoughts are good but his behavior was disruptive and rude. ”
