BarCamp: Podcasting & Medical Applications
The last two of the BarCamp Boston 2 presentations I attended on Saturday dealt with different medical applications. I missed a chunk of the first talk about a Web-based medical application Andy Shearer works on. He uses a variety of languages for it. It’s spiffy.
Richard Barbalace gave a tour of medical surveys the lab where he works at Massachusetts General Hospital uses to gather patient data about hip, knee, shoulder, spine, and related problems. He outlined the importance of knowing primary and target audiences for such Web applications. His lab’s target group has a large number of older people in it, so they use fonts that are larger than usual and simple Web pages.
I’m too tired to think too much right now.
