Are you interested in eHealth? Come join our free eHealth conference the 7th of March and meet peers from Groningen!

eHealth research requires clinical, behavioural, organisational, technical, legal and operational knowledge. It is a very complex and multidisciplinary field. Currently most eHealth researchers are not familiar with their peers from other faculties. To profit from the knowledge and skills of all faculties, a network of eHealth experts within the University of Groningen is necessary to improve the quality of eHealth research.

We are therefore organising a multidisciplinary conference on eHealth in Groningen! Meet your colleagues and form new collaborations!
