Many thanks to Susannah Fox and her colleagues at Pew Research Center’s Internet and American Life Project for continuing to generate some wonderful research on e-health.  The below presentation highlights the key findings of two new reports:

• “Chronic Disease and the Internet”
• “Understanding the Participatory News Consumer”

Both studies provide an in-depth look on the evolving role of social media, the Internet and the empowered patient.
