Hi Derek,

I am presently working with others on research to embed a clinical
terminology amongst clinical students, practitioners and academics.
There are synergies between this work and openEHR ontology neutral
archetypes. Your project sounds fascinatng and  I'd like to know more
about it as you progress.

Cheers

Juanita

attachment.  However giving the student this feedback requires a senior
clinician to read the ePortfolio and comment - and this is too time
consuming to happen in practice.
