Google and Health Informatics
Over the years google has provided more than a few effective free to use solutions. Does this blog post by google’s VP mark the beginnings of innovative ‘google’ type solutions for Healthcare? While the blog mainly focuses around improving search of Healthcare Information (for patients?).
