NetHealth Workshop
Workshop Date: Friday, 11 January 2019
Theme: Networking Humanitarian Technology for Healthcare
Network Health is a yearly conference that offers all stakeholders in the healthcare system a platform to learn, share and connect. Every year, the NetHealth Workshop brings together a multi-disciplinary audience from across the healthcare spectrum to share their ideas and break the conventional silos that exist in this field.
Net Health is centred around people and technology that are changing the face of healthcare. This year’s NetHealth will cover healthcare specific topics like Artificial Intelligence, Bio-entrepreneurship, Tele-medicine, 3D printing, and Investment & Incubation opportunities as well as groundbreaking academic research.
This day-long workshop is for those working within the sphere of healthcare, be it clinicians, students, engineers, designers, innovators, policymakers or regulators, industry experts or anyone else working in support of healthcare.
There are bursaries available for student presenters (Kindly reach out to the co-chairs to know more)
