TechTool review of Figure1 by Movable Science on iOS
Website: – iTunes - Website
Figure1 is really what we have all been talking about in the FOAM world for some time. It’s a way of storing patient photos on your phone, taking consent and sharing them with others for educational purposes.

From Doctor to Futurist: Step #5 Being a Medical Futurist
After fulfilling my childhood dream of becoming a doctor and a geneticist, I decided to make a brave change in my academic career and started discovering the steps needed to become a medical futurist. There is no clear path or course for that, therefore I try to reveal more and more information about this exciting journey in this series of blog entries.
This step might be surprising but it’s really important to position yourself. Everyone is a futurist now therefore one must be very cautious when using this expression. Scott Smith, changeist, divides them into the following groups:

Doctors 2.0 and You: Key Messages in the “From Doctor to Futurist” Keynote
Doctors 2.0 and You was an amazing event again! It collects all the experts, doctors, e-patients, pharma companies and start-ups in this area.

The future of healthcare will be based on patients who will be able to measure anything about themselves from blood count to ECG and even genomic data.

MentalHealth.Gov
Our own beloved DocJohn is currently at the Mental Health Conference in Washington, DC. President Obama and Vice President Biden will be hosting the conference to hopefully create a new awareness of mental health issues.
The website included for this conference will enable you to watch the conference live; get help for others, yourself, and watch some videos on recovery.
There is also a newsroom, a myths and facts section–which is vital for everyone to check out–and what to look for in many disorders in mental health issues. (Source: PsychSplash)
