Hello there, my name is Rukshan. I’m a health informatics spcialist, currently
living in Switzerland.
I started as a clinician, and with a background in digital health,
I transitioned to a world of digital health. I love academia and I write papers
on digital health research
Because of my love to computers and programming,
and mostly I spend my time coding on my laptop

This is my blog where I write about things that I’m interested about, my ideas,
travels, and occational rants. I hope you would enjoy reading this as much as
I enjoy writing.
I haven’t been very active on my blog recently, but when I initially started the blog I wanted to post at least one post per week. So I guess I’m still following my new year resolution on writing at least one post a week.
