Rethinking Healthcare Through Design Thinking
Design and Health have traditionally been odd bedfellows. Design is often thought of as an “aesthetic” discipline, whereas the healthcare industry is perceived to be as cold as it sounds.

This panel will feature a nationally recognized health design leader to lay out the landscape of problems facing healthcare, and he will demonstrate how creativity and design can address - and have addressed - those challenges.
