Wireless Health 2011 is the second in an annual single-track conference
series convening the vanguard international research communities in
Wireless Health technology and medical research with the rapidly
expanding Wireless Health product and service industry, government
leadership and policy makers. This conference is established to provide
the highest profile academic and industrial research forum for the
emerging field of Wireless Health. The mission of the Wireless Health
2011 organization is to include and promote an international community
that will accelerate the development and adoption of this new vision for
healthcare. At the same time, it is intended to create the academic
research forum that enables students and faculty with the highest
profile and greatest impact opportunities for publications and promotion
of progress.

Wireless Health 2011 will provide a critical networking opportunity that
links each of the Wireless Health communities and organizations for the
first time in one forum. It also provides a valuable and timely
education event that informs each of the communities about opportunities
that occur in this new field combining healthcare, medical research,
wireless technology, information technology, and a broad set of new
products and services.
