The next November 22, 23 and 24 is held in Madrid the "5th European Congress of Patients, Innovation and Technologies" by the European Institute of Social Health and Welfare, independent and collaborator of the WHO.
Of course, there is a day in which our disease will be brought to light, as well as other presentations in which new technologies, chronicity or medical-patient decision making will be discussed.Anyway, the program is interesting.Here you have it:

Health 2.0 is the next health revolution, giants such as Google or Microsoft are already investing in it

This last sentence is brutal: We must enhance network work strategies through specific initiatives linked to professional practice and collaborative technologies that favor the bidirectional relationship with patients.
