DeviceConnect Video Highlights: Changing Healthcare Delivery through Human-Centered Design

On May 8, we hosted our third DeviceConnect event titled Changing Healthcare Delivery through Human-Centered Design at the offices of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati in downtown Seattle.

If you missed the event, here is a video of the panel highlights below:

The greatest challenges in healthcare are at the human level. While technology can complicate human-to-human relationships instead of improving them, following a human-centered approach gives organizations the power to create technology that will exponentially improve healthcare and patient outcomes. What does human-centered design mean to medical device companies, and how can device manufacturers integrate a human-centered approach into their development activities? In this third installment of our four-part DeviceConnect series, you hear from experts from Microsoft, the University of Washington, a medical device startup, and WSGR who are currently creating and exploring the potential for consumer-inspired healthcare devices.

Panelists included Beth Kolko, PhD Professor, Human Centered Design & Engineering at the University of Washington, Moni Wolf, Principal Design Director for Microsoft Healthcare, Jamie Ravitz, Member at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, and Scott Thielman, CTO and Co-founder of Product Creation Studio.

Please join us at our next DeviceConnect event on October 2 where will be discussing Ultrasound Technology + Delivery. The event will take place at FUJIFILM SonoSite, Inc. in Bothell, time is still TBD.
