Due to lack lustre ticket sales and with less than four weeks to go until the event we have been forced to cancel HealthCa.mp/SFBay.

We are in the process of issuing refunds to everyone who has purchased a ticket.

We are also actively looking for local organizers who could help us put together a future event in the San Francisco Bay Area. If you are interested in helping us to do this please get in touch. You can do this by sending an email to:

Sponsor and present a 4×4

What is a 4×4?

- 4 Slides presented in 4 minutes.

How do the 4×4 sessions work?

We will be grouping together a series of 4×4 presentations around common themes. A series of 4 presentations will be presented followed by a period of open discussion with the participants who are in attendance.

What is the format for the 4 slides?

If you had 4 minutes and 4 slides what would you have to say?

Slide 1: What is the problem you are addressing?
Slide 2: What have you done to improve this situation?
Slide 3: What are your roadblocks/what don’t you know/Where would you like help?
Slide 4: Who are you and what drew you to tackle this challenge?

How do I get to present a 4×4?

Purchase a sponsor ticket and submit your title and outline to mark AT HealthCA.mp.

We are delighted to announce some great news about the “FireStarter” talks that will open HealthCampSFBay on Friday September 23rd, 2011.

Dr. Alan Greene

Dr. Alan Greene is one of the chief instigator’s behind the “WhiteOut” campaign to end junk food for babies.

Let’s reverse a half century of habit. Let Kids’ first bite be real food – such as mashed avocado, banana, sweet potato, or whole grains (like whole oats or brown rice). There’s no good reason not to. They won’t mind at all. They’ll thank you.

Dr. Preston Maring

Dr. Maring, an OB/GYN physician with Kaiser Permanente since 1971, is the inspiration behind Kaiser Permanente’s Farmer’s Markets. He has a life long passion for cooking. You can find his cooking videos on YouTube.

What you eat is one of the most important determinants of your health.

Todd Park, HHS CTO, hosting a session on open health data.

With over 260 people registered, 4 sessions for each of the 15 rooms, and hundreds of shared conversations, it is not surprise that we generated enough content and interest to garner over 2 million Twitter impressions!
