WUaS Idea- and Academic Resources

Ideas

World University and School's Hospital here - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Hospital - would like to develop a 24/7 online, free, Urgicare center for urgent care issues, in video-conferencing to begin, that would complement on-the-ground hospitals, and provide learning and work opportunities for WUaS medical students, faculty and other WUaS medical professionals.


Publish my article in a WUaS academic journal in this subject

(WUaS's wiki, information technologies and criteria for this - informed by the WUaS academic journal subject matter - are developing, since you can already publish your article at http://www.academia.edu).
