Hacking Health

Hacking Health invited healthcare experts from across Canada to collaborate with technology talent in Montréal.

The idea was simple: Hackers love to solve problems, and healthcare has plenty to go around.

Le 24-25 février 2012, Hacking Health invita à Montréal des professionnels de la santé venant de partout au Canada dans le but de collaborer avec des experts en technologie.

L'idée est simple: les hackers adorent résoudre des problèmes, et il y en a tout pleins dans le domaine de la santé.
