Scientific Colloquium for Healthcare, Engineering and Medicine (SCHEME III)

LIVE WEBCAST AT mms://media.citris.berkeley.edu/scheme3 on the day and time of the event.

This session is the next one in our series of bringing together clinicians and medical researchers to discuss possible research collaborations.

The keynote speaker will be Jonah Frohlich, Deputy Secretary for Health Information Technology, California Department of Health and Human Services Agency. Jonah has led the Schwarzenegger administration’s efforts to achieve statewide electronic health data exchange, uniform interoperability standards and adoption of health information technologies, such as e-prescribing. In addition, we’ll be presenting exciting new developments at CITRIS to expand the infrastructure and other resources devoted to health care research.

The core of the day will be a series of four panels where you can join other CITRIS researchers in reviewing the state of current activity and discuss new opportunities. The panels will cover: Sensors, Point of Care Diagnostics, Imaging, and Robotics, Virtual Reality and Simulation. Between panel sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to meet other researchers over lunch, and tour the UCDMC Innovation Center.
