Health services around the world see mobile as a new channel that will lower cost while improving the quality of care through new and innovative mobile healthcare solutions. Creative thinking on this topic is taking place within academic communities around the world. The GSMA, along with Qualcomm and the Qtel Group, want to foster and stimulate fresh thinking about mobile health in the top universities around the world. We are appealing to the best student brains to do something outrageously cool!
The GSMA Mobile Health University Challenge 2011-2012 seeks students that want to make a difference in the world with pioneering mobile health concepts, applications, and devices that address a health care need within wellness, awareness, diagnosis, treatment & monitoring, clinician support tools and health information systems.
