A fascinating real-world application of Mobile technologies to the "point-of-care" - i.e. the doctor or nurse standing in front of you, checking e.g. that the drug they're proscribing is the correct one for you. Reassuring !

"I want to talk about what is happening, what people are getting excited about and what is maybe slipping under the radar"
