The interdisciplinary initiatives and actions of Museum of Mecine of Crete

The Museum of Medicine of Crete hosts important exhibits from the history of Medicine in the island, approximately from the last two centuries. The necessity for the Museum to expose its unique character through the internet is becoming more important today, when immersive virtual environments such as the metaverse are emerging, and the pandemic differentiates the ways people socialize and work. Our Museum is on the road to digitize its exhibits, record their characteristics, deploy digital services to manage the digitized content, expose selected pieces and apply the necessary digital interfaces in order to register with the national and international cultural content integrators and databases. The new infrastructures of our Museum are studied to comply with the good practices and specifications for interoperability and quality for the disposal of digital content online issued by the National Documentation Centre.
