Healthcare
Heal, Discover, Educate
Help a colleague at a Nigerian hospital arrive at a diagnosis. Quickly find out life-saving information about an emergency-room patient who is unable to communicate. Watch, in real time, an up-close demonstration of a new procedure by a leading specialist and ask her questions. Or watch it later, on demand. Communicate vital information to the public, live, reaching an unlimited number of people.
All this is made possible by the inexpensive and simple Desire2Learn Capture technology that requires no new IT infrastructure or third-party software.
