Modernizing Mobile Apps for a Leading Academic Medical Center

Overview

The client is a well-known Academic Medical Center with a focus on pediatric care and research. Over the years, researchers and graduate students have created mobile applications which achieved widespread acceptance and became important to clinical care and research. Unfortunately, these apps were no longer supported by the original developers because grant funding had run out, and the internal support teams did not have the bandwidth or expertise to support and maintain them. Genzeon partnered with the client to support these orphan applications, bringing them up to date with the latest libraries and coding standards and ensuring ongoing support to the clinical teams that have become dependent on these apps
