We're helping out on another independent group-blog in the vein of the FASTforwardblog we shepherded into existence late last year. This one, backed by World Congress in support of their conference series and called the World Health Care Blog, convenes leading bloggers from across the health care industry for an intense, centralized discussion of innovation in health care.
Amongst those participating: Derek Lowe, whose excellent blog on drug discovery In the Pipeline just celebrated its fifth birthday; longtime health care blogger Matthew Holt of the The Health Care Blog; new blogger but longtime industry consultant and executive Vince Kuraitis; strategy consultant David Williams of the Health Business Blog; consultant, epidemiologist, and self-described "health journalism groupie" Emily DeVoto of The Antidote; and Tony Chen, lead blogger at Hospital Impact and a business developer for a Chicago area, Northwestern-affiliated hospital and research group.
Check the World Health Care Blog out and please spread the word to those who'd find it of interest. For those interested in health care, you might also check out the conference the blog's a companion to: The World Health Care Congress which runs from April 22-24 in Washington, DC. Amongst those speaking: Craig Barrett, chairman of Intel; Lee Scott, CEO of Wal-Mart; Phil Bredesen, the governor of Tennessee; Michael Critelli, CEO of Pitney-Bowes; Catherine Baase, Global Director of Health Services for Dow Chemical; Adam Bosworth, VP at Google; James Goodnight, CEO of SAS; Janet Marchibroda, CEO of eHealth Initiative and Foundation; and more than a hundred other notable executives, industry players, and policymakers.
Tune in to the blog and you'll also find comprehensive reporting from last week's Barcelona conference where Lloyd Davis real-time blogged many of the sessions including the keynote delivered by Muhammad Yunus, the Bangladeshi economist and banker who won last year's Nobel Peace Prize for his pioneering work in micro-lending (see this clip for the gist of his comments including insights on his own country's health care initiatives).
