Hi everyone,
First of all I want to thank the OpenMRS team for the confidence they have shown me in selecting my proposal - it feels great!
My name is Lukas Breitwieser. I’m a Master student in Software Development and Business Management at Graz University of Technology (Austria).
Additionally I studied medicine for two years and worked as a medical clerk in the University Hospital of Graz. I spent two weeks in the department of radiology followed by two weeks almost entirely in the operation theatre assisting the surgical team during orthopedic interventions.
I have a broad spectrum of interests and love bringing ideas to life.
During the next few month I will develop an Operation theater module [0] together with my mentor @harsha89 and Mohammad Ullah.
The Project attracted me in multiple ways:
- Impact - see my results being used in hospitals around the globe!
- Giving back - contribute towards a project that helps to improve the health care system in developing countries.
- Background - combine my two different educations
Beside studying, I really like doing sports. I enjoy swimming, biking, beach volleyball and many more. It really helps me to stay balanced.
I’m really looking forward to the next few months!
All the best, Lukas
