Announcing our Medicine X advisors for 2012-13
I am thrilled to introduce some of the amazing individuals who will be serving as advisors to Stanford Medicine X in 2012-13!
This diverse group of health-care veterans represents a broad spectrum of industry stakeholders from research, technology, allied health professionals, physicians and patients. Their accomplishments and talent are inspiring and will be invaluable in making Medicine X the most innovative and engaging academic-based health-care technology conference.
These extraordinary thought leaders and innovators are appointed for a one-year term.
Get excited for Stanford Medicine X
Medicine X is pleased to announce its first eBook, entitled Our e-Patients. The book is designed to provide insight into our 2012 Stanford Medicine X | Alliance Health e-Patient Scholarship program and will share the stories of the 35 e-patient scholars attending the conference September 28-30, 2012.
The book includes contributing text from Larry Chu, MD, Nick Dawson, Regina Holliday, Julia James and Amy Tenderich. It also features the artwork of Regina Holliday. A selection of e-patient profiles from the Stanford Medicine X Film series is also included in this enhanced eBook. The book was produced by the Stanford AIM lab.

Core themes | Medicine X 2012
I’m so excited to announce the core themes for Medicine X 2012. Like last year, we plan to curate presenters to speak on six core themes for our conference, each giving 20-minute TED-style talks followed by a panel discussion. There will usually be three speakers per theme and a moderator.
Announcing Medicine X | Alliance Health ePatient Scholarship Program
One of the founding missions of Medicine X is to create a patient-centered view of emerging technology and Medicine. Our goal is to unite all health care stakeholders to work together to solve health care problems. As you might guess, patients are a core set of stakeholders. Yet they typically haven’t been meaningfully represented and engaged in an academic medical conference.
We want to change that.

Regina Holliday: Painting the way to better health care
When Regina Holliday was 37—working in her local toy store, teaching preschool art and raising two young sons—her husband, Fred, got sick. The couple left their home in Washington, D.C., drove to a hospital in the suburbs, walked through a polished entryway and welcomed the care of medical professionals.
New member joins the Medicine X team
I’m so excited to welcome a new member to the Medicine X team. Julia James has already started working as our social media specialist and will be helping me share our genesis story, and all the exciting things we are learning along the way to the Stanford Medicine X conference in 2012!
Technology discovery at Medicine X
“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” –Albert Einstein
I have always been drawn to the intersection of technology, healthcare, and entrepreneurship. As an entrepreneur, I can relate to the excitement of taking an idea to market. I learned the importance of a great team that can execute well and adapt to obstacles. As Director of Technology Discovery for Stanford Medicine X, I am fortunate now to be in a position to scout for promising entrepreneurs innovating technologies that will shape the future of medicine.
