Episode Description

The buzz: “This is a new era of medicine… For the first time we can digitize humans” (Eric Topol, MD, health.usnews.com). Reality check for healthcare providers, payers, and producers: You need to reduce costs, improve patient safety and care quality, and gain market share. But where to turn? New technologies such as Blockchain, Connected Health, Personalized Medicine, Health Wearables, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. So many options. What to do first? The experts speak. Jack Schmidt, Deloitte: “That’s been one of my mantras – focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex” (Steve Jobs). Chris Whalley, AWS: “Imagination is more important than knowledge…imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution” (Einstein). Raj Subramanyan, SAP: “A good hockey player plays where the puck is. A great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be” (Wayne Gretzky). Join us for Life Sciences Innovations: Trends to Watch in 2018.
