Description
Data + Devices
This core theme will discuss the controversy surrounding data liberation. Join us as we address questions such as: Should patients have access to their own data, and if so, how can they best gain that access? Is there a framework that we can adopt to work towards the goal of data liberation? What role, if any, should regulatory organizations (such as the FDA) play in protecting and freeing data? What platform should freed data be hosted on? This session will convene a diverse group of experts to answer these questions, and come up with more as we address the growing importance of data in health care.

She is passionate about using technology to facilitate conversations and collaboration to benefit our communities and improve health care. She frequently speaks, writes, and teaches on topics related to the implementation and utilization of social media across health care.
