About Us
Founded by Johns Hopkins Medicine and leading professional medical societies, the MedBiquitous Consortium is the ANSI-accredited developer of information technology standards for healthcare education and competence assessment. Our members are creating a technology blueprint for professional healthcare education. Based on XML and Web services standards, this blueprint will seamlessly support the learner in ways that will improve patient care and simplify the administrative work associated with education and competence assessment. MedBiquitous also provides a neutral forum for educators and industry alike to exchange ideas about innovative uses of Web technologies for healthcare education and communities of practice.
The MedBiquitous Laboratory is the research and development arm of the MedBiquitous Consortium. As part of Johns Hopkins Medicine, the Laboratory joins faculty research efforts with the Consortium's work in healthcare education technologies.
