You bet! Even during the government shut down, or during the time when websites don’t work properly. Innovation in healthcare to reduce cost while improving quality has led to development of technologies for patient engagement, electronic health records, mobile health, and other innovative technologies being part of the “medical home.” For the intended outcomes, we need innovation leaders who can think and act like entrepreneurs. The faculty of the HST.921 course, Enabling Technology Innovation in Healthcare and the Life Sciences, will present and discuss all aspects of the course -- including the mix of lectures by world leaders in medical informatics, skills-based tutorial sessions and faculty-mentored work on industry-sponsored projects.
We will conduct an experiential workshop in which student teams will collaborate in the impromptu design of a “device,” and we will test it and award a prize to the winning team.
