I want to share some very good news! My partner Jose Arocha and I were asked by Stanford and the Global Health Education Consortium to develop an application assisting health professionals around the world. http://modules.globalhealth-ec.org The Global Health Modules Project will lend a hand to Drs and students in combating infectious diseases at home and abroad, while building a social network to document their experiences. It was just announced that our project is a semifinalist in the“Microsoft Develop Without Borders Challenge”, selected from hundreds of projects promoting health and prosperity around the globe.

Wish us luck and thanks to all those who helped us get this done and for helping put this all together. (See announcement below)
