The traditional healthcare model, which continues to operate in a disease-centric, episodic manner, is experiencing significant disruptive change. Presented with the challenges of an aging population, and one suffering increasingly complex, chronic diseases, opportunities to transform the way we deliver and receive care are continually emerging through the rapidly evolving technology landscape. Through advances in Quantified Self monitoring tools, mobile technology platforms, wearable computing, and genomic and precision medicine, we can reconsider the delivery of healthcare to allow us to tackle entrenched challenges whilst optimising patient outcomes. This talk will explore some of the opportunities available in the evolving health tech arena.
