Abstract


In August 2008, the CMA will be launching Asklepios, its social networking site for Canadian physicians, medical students and residents in Canada. which will be a very significant development for enabling the use of web 2.0 technologies by Canadian doctors. This talk presents an early first look at Asklepios. Asklepios is an online community that allows physicians to make new contacts, get advice from colleagues, and collaborate with physicians all over the country.
