Hi ASA Connect,
Many people talk about the potential for digital tech and data science to improve healthcare. Emma Hughes (NHS England and NHS Improvement, UK) is a person who does the gritty work to actually make it happen. In a quick (~25 minute) interview Emma outlines (i) the challenges that digital innovators face when bringing data science into the clinic and (ii) the insights gained from the NHS' Digital Test Beds program.
Why should data scientists and statisticians watch this episode?
- Emma has helped many data scientists like ourselves turn "cool tech" into viable clinical solutions.
- She outlines what clinical staff prioritize in a clinical solution and how to progress your technology from a research paper onto a ward and ultimately deploy it to a full hospital system.
- Innovation is rarely a one-person achievement, so Emma also organizes events to help digital innovators gather a team to handle different aspects of a clinical project.
- Emma outlines the challenges and opportunities in a little over 20 minutes so it's certainly worth your time.
- We've added the timestamps where each topic starts, so you can jump straight to your favorite parts!
