SUMMARY:WEBINAR: TeleHealth Technologies for the future
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will offer the opportunity to hear from Academics from the Open University who will be discussing their work in developing and studying technologies to enable effective\, secure and innovative TeleHealth solutions. \nThis event is in partnership with The Open University Faculty of Wellbeing\, Education and Language Studies. Presentations will include: \n– Future trends in engineering design\, where telehealth can support \n– COVID-19 antibody test/vaccination certification mobile app prototype\, based on blockchain technology \n– Decentralised Trust and Privacy for Digital Health \n– Trends in product development to 2040 and their implications for Telehealth \n– Plus we will be hearing from Hospital Services Limited (HSL) a specialist distributor of medical supplies and surgical equipment and consumable products. As we hear about their latest technologies and how they’ve been able to respond positively to the COVID-19 pandemic\, as they look at – what is the future of Telehealth? \nDURATION: 1.5 hours \nThis free to attend event is held as part of the ACTIS programme – a project part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund\, click here to be re-directed to further information about the project. This event is classed as State Aid to participating businesses\, the value of which is £190\, but is delivered completely free of charge to participants. \nSpeaker Profiles: \n\nGaynor Henry-Edwards\, Research Manager\, Faculty of Wellbeing\, Education and Language Studies – The Open University\nGaynor manages the Health and Wellbeing Strategic Research Area at The Open University. The Strategic Research Area supports\, coordinates and promotes health and wellbeing research across the university. Open University researchers conduct research in health and wellbeing across various disciplines and areas including healthcare management\, ageing studies\, reproductive and sexual rights\, assistive technologies\, patient data management\, mental health and biological health sciences. The scope of University expertise ranges from the science underpinning health and disease through to the medical humanities. The Open University is committed to working towards social justice specialising in participative and inclusive research methods with marginalised and vulnerable communities. \n\nProfessor Claudia Eckert\, Professor of Design\, The Open University\nClaudia is Professor of Design at the Open University. Her background is Mathematics and Philosophy. She has an MSc in Applied Artificial Intelligence from the University of Aberdeen and a PhD in design from the Open University. She spent nearly ten years in Cambridge in the Engineering Design Centre before returning to the Open University. She carries out empirical studies of design processes in engineering\, construction and fashion; and researches on understanding and supporting designers in industry. She also works on theoretical concepts underlying design practise. She has published over 250 papers in reviewed journal and conferences. She is a member of the board of management of the Design Society and a co-chair of the Design Process Special Interest Group of the Design Society.\n \n\nDr Allan Third (she/her)\, Research Fellow with the Knowledge Media Institute\, The Open University\nAllan (she/her) is a Research Fellow in the Knowledge Media Institute of The Open University\, researching the Semantic Web\, Linked Data\, and Blockchains\, with applications to education\, healthcare\, and the scientific process. She holds a PhD from the University of Manchester\, in the logical analysis of the semantics of English\, and has worked on various topics within her research areas at the Universities of Leeds and Oxford and the Open University. She has extensive experience in UK and European research projects\, as contributor and work package leader\, primarily in the fields of digital healthcare (VPH-Share\, CARRE) and education (SlideWiki\, Up2U\, QualiChain\, DEL4ALL). She is heavily involved in the blockchain and education components of the ongoing Institute of Coding and QualiChain projects\, in which KMi is a partner. She has been a tutor multiple times at the ESWC Summer School\, and produced research papers on the impact of Blockchain technologies for the EU Blockchain Observatory and Forum. Dr. Third is a member of several related past and current Web standardisation efforts\, including the W3C Blockchain and Credentials Community Groups\, and the Verifiable Credentials Working Group. As well as her extensive technical knowledge\, Dr. Third has a background in Philosophy\, and a strong interest in social issues\, and the effects of technology on society.\n \n\nDr Manoharan Ramachandran – Research Associate and mobile application developer\, The Open University\nManoharan is a Research Associate and a mobile application developer at the Open University.
