ePatient inclusion at Medicine 2.0

 


(Logo credits: Lucien Engelen, one of the co-organizers of Medicine 2.0'10 in Maastricht)

Medicine 2.0 has a long history of including patients.
One of our first keynote speakers at Medicine 2.0'09 was Epatient Dave (Dave DeBronkart), who subsequently became a rockstar of the epatient movement (and we are proud of having played a role in this).
Dave is also on the scientific advisory board of Medicine 2.0'12, and will once again speak - the tentative title of his 2012 talk is "Gimme my damn data - 3 years later" - a follow up of his talk in Toronto 2009.
(And Jamie Heywood - cofounder and chairman of PatientsLikeMe - will be a keynote speaker at Medicine 2.0'12 - few other companies had such a revolutionary impact on the empowerment of epatients).

About a dozen or so epatients were present at all previous Medicine 2.0 conferences, with reduced or waived registration fees.

We are also happy to announce that in 2012 we are once again giving free tickets to qualified epatients (NO healthcare professionals, healthcare students, CEO's of startups etc. please). Epatients interested in participating, please submit an application here. (space is limited - if you want to be sure to attend, we recommend to find a specific sponsor).

In addition, we are actively soliciting sponsors for epatients (who will be acknowledged).
Moreover, in our registration form, participants can check an option to register for an epatient they know, sponsoring his/her registration fee.

JMIR Medicine 2.0 papers from Stanford conference

 
The Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR), the leading journal in eHealth with an Impact Factor of 4.7, is the official journal of the Medicine 2.0 congress series and workshops/events/summits produced under this brand.
Today, JMIR is proud to publish the first full paper based on a presentation at Medicine 2.0'11 in Stanford.

It is based on the award winning presentation of Bassam Kadry at Medicine 2.0'11, and can be found as full paper here:

Kadry B, Chu LF, Kadry B, Gammas D, Macario A
Analysis of 4999 Online Physician Ratings Indicates That Most Patients Give Physicians a Favorable Rating
J Med Internet Res 2011;13(4):e95
URL: http://www.jmir.org/2011/4/e95/
doi: 10.2196/jmir.1960

The Multimedia Appendix in this paper is a video of his Medicine 2.0 talk, and is also published as Medicine 2.0/JMIR podcast on itunes.

Thanks you to all other presenters who have already submitted a full paper of their talk to JMIR or the Medicine 2.0 Proceedings.
Over the course of the next months, these papers will appear either in JMIR or in the Medicine 2.0 Proceedings (as Stanford was unable to sponsor a "Theme Issue" this year, these papers will appear within regular JMIR issues as soon as they are accepted).

For details on the Medicine 2.0/JMIR partnership see the Call for Papers which was handed out to all presenters at Medicine 2.0'11 in Stanford (our apologies that the CfP did not make it into the program booklet this year).

A short reminder for Medicine 2.0'11 presenters: If you want to take advantage of the significant Article Processing Fee discount for Medicine 2.0 presenters, the deadline to submit the full paper to JMIR is within 2 months after the conference, which is November 18th, 2011.

Missed the submission deadline for full papers? No problem! Presenters can submit thir full paper to JMIR at any time later after the deadline, but will then not be able to take advantage of the Article Processing Fee discount. Or submit to the Medicine 2.0 Proceedings (within 6 months after the conference, deadline March 18th, 2012).
