The Second Egyptian International conference on E-Medicine

(Cairo 2008 )

          The Healthcare industry is poised to utilize the e-commerce model for business transactions. The ultimate goal of the healthcare industry is to provide effective treatment for its clients. E-commerce is a tool, which will facilitate the safe and effective treatment of clients. Electronically connecting with patients is a challenging frontier at which technical hurdles are probably exceeded by political, legal, and other barriers. The Internet has created both opportunities and threats that providers of all stripes must eventually confront to remain viable businesses in the new economy. The First international conference on E-Medicine(Cairo 2008) is assumed to be a timely reminder of the inter-related nature of the link between Medicine and the Information Technology. We strongly believe that such meetings around the world, whether they are local or international in nature, inevitably bring together people who are working in the medical field with those of IT field and foster the belief that the sharing of ideas and experience is the way forward. Our event will be held in the beautiful city of Cairo, the oldest city in the region “where the Nile is about to bifurcate before it ends". We warmly invite you to come and participate in this Meeting, and share with us the joy of an exciting and challenging scientific program, as well as the beauty of the enchanting city of Cairo – a mix of the old and the new. We look forward to meeting you in Cairo in March .
