Alumni Insights: Sensing, Empowering and Shaping Health Equitably

Alumni Insights: Sensing, Empowering and Shaping Health Equitably

By Imperial College London Alumni

Overview

An Imperial alumni panel event exploring how convergence science can contribute to more equitable health outcomes worldwide.

How might new approaches and technologies help us to sense health needs earlier, empower individuals and communities to take control of their health, and shape health systems and technologies that are smarter and more inclusive?

Join us for this evening panel discussion chaired by Professor Anthony Bull, focusing on Sensing, Empowering and Shaping Health Equitably.

Our interdisciplinary alumni panel will reflect on emerging tools, approaches and ways of working that have the potential to support prevention, improve access, and respond to health challenges across diverse populations and settings.

The event reflects the mission of Imperial’s School of Convergence Science: Health and Technology, which exists to drive meaningful collaboration between disciplines, methods and mindsets to tackle society’s most complex health challenges. By fostering collaboration across boundaries, the School seeks to shift the focus from treating illness to sustaining lifelong health - with equity, agency, and convergence science at its core.

Alongside the panel conversation, attendees will get to experience a round of quick-fire pitches by Imperial startups, highlighting how the university’s innovation ecosystem is moving from concept to society, to empower patients as well as professionals and shape more inclusive health systems and technologies.

The evening will conclude with a networking reception, offering you the chance to connect with fellow alumni, speakers, founders and members of the Imperial community over refreshments.

Please check the Imperial website over the coming weeks for the speaker lineup.
