Feedback regarding the Spring Conference

We knew that at least a couple of bloggers were in attendance at the Biocitizen & New Media Technologies Conference.

I was curious to find out what they had to say about the event.

Dmitriy Kruglyak at Trusted.MD noted that conference explored many ideas:

Among the most remarkable I found the pre-conference workshop on convergence of Health and Entertainment. Specifically the focus has been on "Games and Gaming for Health" and even included a role-playing game for attendees to form a social network. I think introducing a concept of "play" into shaping health behaviors is a very powerful idea, but still in infancy.
