Doctors, Ph.D.s to edit new Wikipedia of medical information

“July 23, 2008 (Computerworld) A project launched today aims to create what is in essence a medical version of Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia focused on explaining conditions, drugs, procedures, medical facilities and other topics written by physicians and Ph.D.s.

The Medpedia Project launched a preview of its site on Wednesday with the support of medical heavyweights such as the Harvard Medical School, the Stanford School of Medicine, the University of Michigan Medical School and the University of California Berkeley School of Public Health.”

How could the Hershey Medical Center use this for teaching?
