This is an exciting opportunity\, not to be missed. \nBut there’s work to do before then…Here’s how it works: \nOctober – From October onwards we’re looking for people to submit their problems. Any issue which requires a solution is welcome\, all we need is a paragraph. Choose “Health and Care” ticket when you register\, fill in the appropriate information\, and we’ll get in touch with you. Now’s your chance! \nIf you’ve got the skills\, we’ve got the challenge. To collaborate with NHS staff to develop solutions or new products choose ‘Solutions!’ when you register. Nearer the event date we’ll send you a list of the challenges and more detailed guidance about how you can take part. Put simply… turn up for the two days\, find a team you can work with\, and put your problem solving skills to work. \nJanuary – The hack itself will take place. There’ll be plenty of things to see\, speakers to listen to\, and a fantastic atmosphere of innovation. So\, if you want to come but aren’t sure yet how you’ll be contibuting\, choose ‘Participant’ and we’ll be in touch nearer the time with further details. We hope to see you there. \nFurther details and agendas for all stages of the event will be circulated and shared nearer the date. \nThis two day event is a collaboration between The Bevan Commission\, Life Sciences Hub\, MediWales\, M-SParc\, and the NHS. \nPlease note: Since the Welsh Health Hack is organised and run by the group of organisations listed above\, your contact details will be collected by M-SParc but may be shared with one or more of the partner organisations.

SUMMARY:The Future of Care: How could robotics and autonomous systems change frontline health and social care?
DESCRIPTION:In the next in our series of ‘Future of Care’ events\, we’ll guide health and care professionals through the latest developments and future opportunities to separate the fact from the fiction. \nWe’ll explore how robotic technologies and autonomous systems provide very real opportunities to change the way we deliver frontline services across all aspects of health and social care. This could be through physical assistive robotics technology supporting rehabilitation\, independent living or improve patient ability and comfort\, or social robots providing cognitive support and enabling social interaction for people who are living alone. \nCan robotics really fulfil all these needs? What are the challenges of implementation? How will robotics impact the way staff work and the type of workforce we need? Do we need to consider the ethical and social issues surrounding the use of this technology? Come along to find out the answers and to pose your own questions. \nFollowing the event\, you’ll have the opportunity to tour the Bristol Robotics Laboratory at the University of the West of England. Places are limited so early booking is recommended. \nConfirmed speakers: \nRobotics in social care: A connected care ecosystem for independent living\, Praminda Caleb-Solly\nSafety of Physically assistive robotics\, Sanja Dogramadzi\nRehabilitatoin Robotics\, Dr Manoj Sivan\nEthical issues in the use of robotic and asistive technology\, Marina Jirotka & Alan Winfield\nA scoping study on the emerging use of Artificial Intelligence & robotics in social care\, Jim Thomas and Diane Buddery \nFor more information and to register click here.

SUMMARY:Precision Medicine: Connecting Industries to UK Excellence
DESCRIPTION:Innovate UK\, KTN & the Precision Medicines Centres of Excellence Network will be hosting an event on Precision Medicine on 30th Jan in London. \nThe UK has embarked on a very ambitious journey to become the home of Precision Medicine. This journey started in 2010 when the precursor to Innovate UK\, the Technology Strategy Board\, and a consortium of Governmental bodies and charities funded the Stratified Medicine Innovation Platform Programme Coordination Group. This was followed a year later with  the publication of a Technology Roadmap\, which identified thematic areas which would need to be addressed to accelerate the research\, development and uptake of stratified medicine in the UK. \nSince then\, millions of pounds have been invested by the UK government in infrastructure and programmes to accelerate the adoption of Precision Medicine into clinical practice.  The UK Government Industrial Strategy identified health data and genomics as key to the development of precision medicine. Furthermore\, the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund invested £210 million to the sector via the Data to Early Diagnosis and Precision Medicine Challenge theme. \nInnovate UK regards Precision Medicine as being any technology that can enable early and accurate diagnosis to inform patient management or selection of therapy. It has historically liaised with six Centres of Excellence in Precision Medicine around the UK with the aim of helping to align existing assets and initiatives in order to enhance the development of new pathways\, products and services and to facilitate their integration within the healthcare system. \nThese Precision Medicine Centres of Excellence – that are based in England\, Wales\, Scotland and Northern Ireland – have been working towards a strategy to ensure that this UK resource is spread across the country and can be accessed by industry and research organisation alike for the benefit of patients. \nOn the 30th of January 2020\, Innovate UK and the Knowledge Transfer Network are collaborating with the PM Centres of Excellence Network to deliver an event at Stamford Bridge in London showcasing existing capability and assets that reside in the UK. This event will also open up the conversation to ensure  other groups working in Precision Medicine in the UK also have a platform to highlight their skills and capabilities. Alison Cave (ISCF Director: Accelerating Detection of Disease at Innovate UK) will be providing the keynote speech. \nFind out more here

SUMMARY:5th Annual MarketsandMarkets Infection Control\, Sterilization and Decontamination in Healthcare Congress
DESCRIPTION:Addressing challenges associated with adoption & implementation of new technologies to fight Healthcare Associated Infections\n\nAround 1 in 20 (6%) of patients are affected by preventable harm in medical care\, of which around 12% causes permanent disability or death\, according to a study published by The BMJ. These infections are contracted by an estimated 1.7 million patients annually and responsible for 99\,000 deaths each year. \nPreventing disease and controlling spread of resistant bacteria is of major importance when tackling antibiotic resistance.  Already\, AMR infections are estimated to cause 700\,000 deaths each year globally\, which is predicted to rise to 10 million\, alongside a cumulative cost of $100 trillion\, by 2020 if no action is taken. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur speaker panel will address challenges associated with adoption & implementation of new technologies to fight Healthcare Associated Infections\, gathering global hospitals presenting case studies\, technologies and innovations to fight possibilities of HAIs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe congress will attract Directors\, Heads\, Doctors\, Nurses\, Consultants\, Clinical Lead\, Deputy Manager from Infection Control\, Sterilization\, Decontamination and Endoscopy departments across UK and Europe. \n\n\n\n\n\nNHS is making a lot of attempts to reuse device-related Healthcare Associated Infections through its standardized training and efficient decontamination process\, but are the primary problems-are we really implementing our method and achieving decontamination efficacy and making the hospital environment free from infection? The 5th Annual MarketsandMarkets Infection Control\, Sterilization and Decontamination in Healthcare Congress aims at providing a platform to all the stakeholders\, to discuss the challenges in maintaining the infection free environment in the hospitals and effective ways to reduce the chances of healthcare associated infections through contaminated medical devices. \nFor more information\, click here.
