Project Galen

Project Galen began in 2011 as a student-developed, open-source, standards-based Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. It was built for touch-screen tablet devices that would access a database server rather than store data on the tablet. Project Galen employed user-centered design techniques that reduced the depth of hierarchical structures that are commonly found in menu-driven EHR systems. We are in the process of repurposing components of that original EHR as Case-Based Learning tools for the healthcare domain.
