Hi! I am Gulraiz, nice meeting you all. I am student of engineering working on OpenMRS. This is wonderful Platform and Application :slight_smile:

hullo. am Deborah kalungi. relatively new to the programing world however very interestd in learning more. am mostly interested in coding . any assistance in this regard is highly appreciated

Hello Everyone,

My name as you see is Sabino Nenes and Iam from Mozambique situated in south of Africa. I studied BCA in Ludhiana, Punjab, Northwest of India and I live in Maputo, Mozambique capital city.

thank you for a kind reception.

Hi everyone, I’m Sunil Kadam, and I’m new for OpenMRS. – it’s been really exciting for me to start working with OpenMRS.

thanks @lahiruj. let me go there right away

Hi Good folks, I am Len Smith, MD, MS, a retired Family Physician and Medical Informaticist. I started exploring OpenMRS in late 2015 and implemented the OpenMRS Standalone Ref App 2.3.1 for the ABCsforGlobalHealth mobile van, medical clinic in San Fernando, Pampanga , Philippines in June, 2016.

The ABCforGH is a non-profit founded by Dr. Julieta Gabiola, a Clinical Associate Professor at Stanford University Medical School. We are developing a long term medical record serving, indigenous peoples, indigent patients and their clinicians in the barrios of Pampanga and conduct research in using SMS messaging in chronic medical conditions, prenatal care and malnutrition.

My informatics work has involved MS SQL, but I consider myself an implementer and hope that I can mentor young Filipino developers in OpernMRS. I am sure I will be a frequent reader and submitter of Talk.OpenMRS.org questions. I greatly thank all of you for your sustained contributions and look forward someday to attending an OpenMRS annual gathering and meeting you in person.

Hi Tim Sanjaya Poudel here, Working in far western region of Nepal. We are using Openmrs and other bundled solution for LAB and Stocks. Which platform are you using ?

Hello! I’m Sergey Novikov, a software developer. Last time I was writing Java about seven years ago. I’ve never developed a medical soft. And I don’t have much time now. But I’m very motivated to make something useful and have not bad skills in backend development. Will be glad to join the OpenMRS community

Hi, I’m Huayu. I’m new to open source development and I’m excited to get started working with OpenMRS!

Hi everyone! My name is Abdulaziz Albader

I am majoring in software engineering and I have only one class left to graduate. So I’m here to do my internship class for my Bachelor degree! Also, I am really interested on working in the OpenMRS projects. I graduated from my first degree in 2008 which was computer networking.

Hello, My name is Aaron Tushabe. I spend most of my time doing business analysis over at ThoughtWorks (the folks who helped build Bahmni). Am passionate about using Tech to extend better Healthcare to Low Resource Communities so am excited to join the community and looking for opportunities to support and volunteer.

Hello @albader449549 click [here] for the other information you need to get started.Welcome and the whole community is delighted to have you and ready to support you as-well .:hug:

Hello and thank you for reading my introduction.

My name is Richard Tayrien. I am a physician, boarded in Internal Medicine and practiced in Phoenix Arizona for 20 years at a teaching tertiary medical center. An interest in medical informatics in the late 90s resulted in a career change and I subsequently assumed the role of CMIO at 2 very large health systems.

I am very familiar with the pioneering work at Regenstrief Institute and the great benefits afforded to the entire field of biomedical informatics including OpenMRS. However my work has been primarily applied informatics at scale and I have been engaged with the big 3 commercial systems for the past 15 years. Starting in 2004 I led the implementation of provider facing solutions within those systems across 170 US hospitals.

That said I am passionate about open source solutions and have built a couple of multi-boot Linux workstations and servers. It is one of my Ubuntu platforms on which I have today installed a standalone demo version of OpenMRS.

I am winding down my career focusing more on volunteer work and am on the board of a NGO engaged in domestic and international disaster response and ongoing medical outreach. We frequently find ourselves in very remote locations or situations with compromised infrastructures and limited to no access to power. (Urban and rural US as well as remote locations in Nepal, Haiti, Philippines, Sri Lanka etc.) At the same time we have a desire to improve our clinical documentation for follow-up and statistical reporting. A hybrid solution with standalone dBs on mobile devices that can be synchronized across a cloud solution seems to have potential.

I am quite impressed with the quality of code and the dedication and support of the community. It is clear from the documentation and forums every one cares deeply about each others success.

As a total noob I look forward to getting to know those of you in community and I thank you in advance for your indulgence.

Best Regards, R Tayrien
