A new Internet scheduling tool from the federal CDC is designed to make that chore a little easier. It took me about 10 seconds to download the tool on my desktop . .The parent or pediatrician adds in which shots the child already has received, and the scheduling software (designed by a professor and graduate student at GEORGIA TECH), weighs the complex and often conflicting rules for each immunization, and then cranks out a nifty, printable color-coded chart showing how much space to leave between catch-up doses, as well as regular shots.\u003Cbr \/\u003ERead more at \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.usnews.com\/blogs\/on-parenting\/2008\/5\/27\/a-new-tool-to-manage-your-childs-vaccine-schedule.html?s_cid=rss:on-parenting:a-new-tool-to-manage-your-childs-vaccine-schedule\u0022\u003Eusnews.com\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":"","uid":"27279","created_gmt":"2008-05-27 00:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:06:29","author":"Barbara Christopher","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2008-05-27T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2008-05-27T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"57458","name":"ISyE External News"}],"categories":[{"id":"145","name":"Engineering"},{"id":"135","name":"Research"}],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cstrong\u003EBarbara Christopher\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIndustrial and Systems Engineering\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.gatech.edu\/contact\/index.html?id=bt3\u0022\u003EContact Barbara Christopher\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E404.385.3102\u003C\/strong\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["bchristopher@isye.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
