		<description><![CDATA[Had an opportunity to attend an alumni event hosted by the University of Waterloo (UW). Apparently this is the first time event for Health Studies &#38; Gerontology alumni. This event was taking place at the Sheraton Centre, Toronto during the Canadian Public Health Association&#8217;s (CPHA) Centennial Conference. It was great to catch-up with a mentor [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The current issue of Health Affairs (February 2010, Vol. 29, No. 2) is focused on ehealth with a tag-line of &#8220;E-Health in the Developing World&#8221;. I just stumbled onto this issue so I haven&#8217;t had a chance to read it yet. There are a number of articles grouped into some interesting categories including: Policies and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was an interesting editorial published this past week in the BMJ titled &#34;How should health be defined?&#34; by Jadad and O&#8217;Grady. The basic idea of the article is that while health was defined in 1948 by a panel of experts that changed our notions of health and illness, is it time for a new [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s interesting to see how differently ehealth is viewed by academics and industry.  To one, ehealth is the potential of using new mediums to explore ideas and possibilities, while to the other, ehealth is more of a means to an end. For the past few years, I&#8217;ve been in the academic world exploring the limits [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For those interested in a somewhat contrarian viewpoint about ehealth, I suggest you check out Scot Silverstein.  I just recently came across his site documenting some &#34;common examples of health care IT difficulties&#34;.  You can also listen to his interview available via the Government Health IT site &#8211; an excellent site. In his interview, Dr. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I attended a fascinating presentation earlier this week. The presentation was about the “imposter phenomenon” by Diane Zorn (PhD candidate at York University). The Imposter Phenomenon is when high achievers (e.g., graduate students, professors, lawyers, physicians, etc) are “plagued by the fear that they are not as capable or intelligent as others think they are, [...]]]></description>

Some seem to be interested in advancing their own knowledge so that they can use their new found knowledge and skills to further their career in the workplace. For those interested in pursuing a doctoral degree [...]]]></description>
