Abstract:

In spite of the massive amounts of health-related data and progress in technical innovation, healthcare lags behind other industries in effective implementation of digital solutions. There is a large gap between a good idea or great product and its implementation in healthcare, and very few of innovations that are implemented generate evidence required for sustainability and scalability. In this talk, Wendy Chapman will share the approaches she and her team are taking in Australia to bridge that translational gap, including workforce training and development of infrastructure such as the Digital Health Validitron to prepare innovations for integration into clinical workflows.

Professor Wendy Chapman is the Associate Dean of Digital Health and Informatics at the University of Melbourne, as well as the Director of the Centre for Digital Transformation of Health. She is an elected fellow of the American College of Medical Informatics and the US National Academy of Medicine and serves as a Board member of the Australasian Institute of Digital Health. Her research aims to leverage data and digital technology to transform healthcare delivery. Professor Chapman spent two decades developing and evaluating AI / natural language processing algorithms and has led many multidisciplinary programs of work focused on research, education, and application of digital health. Her current passion is how to best design, implement, and validate digital innovations like AI and virtual care in healthcare settings.

This talk will be held in-person in Building 38A, 4th floor conference room and live on Zoom at https://nih.zoomgov.com/j/1601224210
