The aim of this meeting is to bring together people with an interest and/or expertise in imaging, sensing and digital health in gastrointestinal medicine. The day’s talks will inform attendees of the innovative technologies and solutions emerging to solve unmet NHS needs.
The afternoon hack sessions will provide a workshop for people to identify and discuss topics that require innovative solutions. This meeting provides a unique blend of clinical, academic, industrial and patient perspectives on gastrointestinal medical technology.
By the end of the meeting delegates will have:
- Received expert lectures on innovative technologies in imaging, sensing and digital healthcare in GI medicine.
- Opportunities to connect and network with experts to identify cross-over applications for technologies.
- Opportunity to input into hack session workshops, designed to identify the unmet issues in GI medicine.
The target audience for this meeting would be anyone with an interest in innovative gastrointestinal healthcare technologies, specifically in the areas of imaging, sensing and digital. We hope to encourage a wide range of perspectives to generate discussion regarding these areas, with the aim of identifying unmet needs and potential solutions
