DESCRIPTION:EHR systems have been widely adopted across the developed worl
 d\, with governments and healthcare organisations now investing significan
 t funds to provide systems for healthcare workers to store medical records
  and other health data electronically.\n\nIn low-resource settings such as
  Kenya\, the cost of commercial EHR systems is prohibitive for publically 
 funded hospitals and the use of Open Source EHR systems\, such as OpenMRS\
 , is being explored as an alternative.\n\nThis talk will cover several res
 earch projects we are undertaking to assess the EHR landscape in Kenya and
  current large-scale projects to roll out Open Source EHR systems to publi
 c hospitals.\n\nAbout Chris Paton\nDr Chris Paton is a Clinical Researcher
  in Global Health Informatics at the Centre for Tropical Medicine at the U
 niversity of Oxford. He trained as a medical doctor in the UK and was a Se
 nior Research Fellow at the National Institute for Health Innovation at th
