Future Blood Testing Network & OIA Event - Nov. 23rd at 9:30am GMT
Details
Oxford Immune Algorithmics is part of the Future Blood Testing Network+ (Future Blood Testing for Inclusive Monitoring and Personalised Analytics Network+). The Nov. 23rd event is the virtual launch for the Future Blood Testing Network, and our MeetUp community is invited to attend!
We've identified three key technology challenges for Healthcare and blood testing: remote monitoring, information and communication technology, personalised analytics and artificial intelligence (AI).
The Network+ is funded by EPSRC under grant number EP/W000652/1 and hosted at the University of Reading. We are aiming to build a multi-disciplinary community to develop digital health technologies for remote, rapid, affordable and inclusive monitoring and personalised analytics.

There will be presentations on our different Network themes given by the Network Management Team, in addition to presentations given by healthcare professionals and medical researchers. There will also be a Q+A Panel with the Network Management Team to enable you to find out more about our research and planned activities! This event will be run on zoom and the talks from the different Network Managers will be recorded and made available on our YouTube Channel.
