Here are
some of the ways by which a Mobile Global Health Supercourse could develop.
We are pushing the Supercourse lectures into mobiles with a Supercourse
app. We have published several papers on Mobile technology and
surveillance, not only for infectious diseases, but also chronic diseases.
Linking a Supercourse App, with Iphones and pico projectors provides
teaching technologies for even the remotes regions. With Mobile technology
we can reach into intelligent networks to find help. One of the major
concerns in disasters is that of habitability of houses. We are
collaborating with the International association of certified house
inspectors, to relay Cell pictures to a disaster reading center for houses
to make judgments about habitability. In China they presented our infectious
disease lectures to millions of people on TV. We have developed a global
health lecture that is being distributed to all the medical and public
health schools. The Mobile technology is ideal for providing rapid
scientific knowledge at the time of a disaster. Both those in academia and
business believe that we can improve the health of the world. We now have
the opportunity to do global health surveys over mobiles.
