Baobab at RailsConf Europe

Mike McKay recently took Baobab on the road, after being invited to speak at RailsConf Europe. He went and told the Ruby on Rails world about how rails is helping to fight HIV in Africa. He brought to life the HIV epidemic and showed how healthcare workers are being guided through treatment protocols and getting decision support from the data in realtime. Check out the slides from “Africa On Rails” for more information.
