TechMed Summerschool
Are you ready to emerge yourself in a variety of innovative, clinical applications in healthcare technology? Then make sure your agenda is clear from 3-6 July to join us at the @LUMC for the TechMed Summer School. As a clinical technologist, engineer, medical specialist, (PhD-)researcher or master student you will be updated in the field of Technical and Medical Science through various state-of-the-art masterclasses, interactive group sessions and on campus visits.
General structure
During the Summer School, we will discuss the following themes:
- Day 1: TechMed and the Geriatric Patient (Mon 3 July)
- Day 2: TechMed and Sustainability (Tue 4 July)
- Day 3:TechMed and Global Health (Wed 5 July)
- Day 4: TechMed and AI (Thur 6 July)
Learning Objectives
1. Obtain up-to-date knowledge on four substantive themes, which the participants can translate directly to their own field of work, i.e. the operating room of the future, imaging of cancer, Artificial Intelligence, e-health.
2. Insight in the way in which direct colleagues or other care professionals or technical professionals look at the integration of clinical care and technology and what the advantages and disadvantages, and potential possibilities and barriers are. And with this insight itself they can better analyze a medical technological problem and make optimal choices.
3. Insight in the way in which direct colleagues or other healthcare or technical professionals look at the directly applicable implementation of technology in the care and what potential possibilities and barriers are. And with this insight a future technological challenge can be analyzed and solutions can be designed and implemented.
Target group
Our main target group are highly talented (post) Msc students (Technical medicine, Medicine, Biomedical Sciences, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Sciences), PhD students, young medical specialists with technological interest, (junior) postdocs.
