Dear Wikimedians,
I would like to draw your attention to the Med GLAM Project from
India[1]. The main objective of this project is to create, curate and
make openly available images from the Department of Pathology (DoP),
Calicut Medical College (CMC), India; for the benefit of medical and
para-medical students specifically and for the larger medical fraternity
across the world.
I am glad to inform you that this project has kick-started in October
2014 and is gaining momentum. Netha Hussain, is the
Wikipedian-in-Residence for this project.
Dr. K.P. Aravindan, Head of DoP, CMC and Netha Hussain have played a
pivotal role in putting this project together and successfully
partnering with the CMC. So far 146 images are uploaded on the Commons
under the project and are available here [2]. Most of the credit goes to
Netha for this successful Med-GLAM project in progress.
Help and support, especially from Wikimedians with Pathology background,
is welcome in writing descriptions for the images uploaded, categorizing
them and reviewing the quality of images. Any other feedback would be
useful.
Thank you,
Vishnu
