Hey All

Abi previously announced that we’re going to hold a follow up to our meeting between HL7 and openEHR in Amsterdam last year **Converge and Collaborate** (openEHR and HL7) - Dublin, May 12-13

There’ll be a formal announcement shortly, along with a call for papers and contributions, but since Abi has confirmed the facility details, I thought I’d give it a little more visibility. Note that unlike last meeting, this meeting will be open participation. So keep an eye out for the announcement, and see you Dublin

Hello everyone,

First of all, thanks for sharing this! We are very interested in the possibility of attending the meeting this year, especially now that it's open to broader participation. Regarding the program, I was wondering if the event will follow the same **five workstreams** we saw in the previous edition, or if there are plans to define new ones for Dublin?

In either case, could you provide a bit more detail on what those specific lines of work will be?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Laura and thanks for your interest. The agenda has not yet been finalised but we will update as soon as possible. Broadly speaking there will updates from the existing five workstreams, however there will also be new areas of focus - including cancer treatment support - and we’ve issued a call for presentations so other themes will arise. More info to follow! Feel free to DM if you have any areas you’d like to discuss.
