Our CSE ICTD group will have two papers at this conference: Brian DeRenzi, et al.: A Framework for Case-based Community Health Information Systems Waylon Brunette, Ruth Anderson, et al.: Reducing Maternal Mortality: An Ultrasound System for Village Midwives Of course, both papers have authors as well (both at UW and other places). I'm being parochial and only listing the UW CSE authors. Gaetano On Wed, Sep 28, 2011 at 8:49 AM, Jon Froehlich <jonfroehlich@gmail.com> wrote:
