Delivering the best of Digital Health

De Montfort University has established a new Digital Health and Care Unit within the school of Health and Life Sciences to address many of the frustrations experienced by patients, clinicians and digital health companies at the pace of access to, and thus benefit from, emerging technologies.
Starting in 2018 the Unit set out to establish partnerships with local clinicians and digital health companies to answer real clinical and social needs with technologies that are ready for use in the UK, but not deployed.

They will share with you their approach and encourage clinicians, digital health companies and patients to get involved and derive real benefit from these technologies.
