The controversial medical device tax, the increasing threat of cyber-attacks, the fast pace of technical developments and the regulatory hurdles that these bring up – these are topics that the industry as a whole needs to discuss and debate and strategize on. #CoMedSummit
Scott Phillips will be the featured speaker at UHN – University Health Network in Toronto, ON on September 24 as part of the TECHNA ROUNDS | INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF TECHNOLOGY FOR HEALTH series. The talk will take place from 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm at 100 College St, Banting Institute, Room 131.
Techna is an institute of University Health Network, in collaboration with the University of Toronto, focused on the accelerated development and exploitation of technology for improved health. The Techna Institute is designed to shorten the time interval from technology discovery and development to application for the benefit of patients and the health care system. It will also stimulate and facilitate the innovation cycle through a continuum of clinically driven innovation, technology & process development, and translational research. While technology has existed as an essential platform for UHN research, Techna represents a paradigm shift towards demand-driven activities, and the organizational alignment of the needs of the research hospital and the research enterprise.
