Hello and welcome to The Insider special series on Health Technologies. In the second podcast of the series we will discuss the state of the art of smart medical devices and how advances in smart technologies can help opening up new therapeutic avenues that will increase effectiveness of surgical procedures, increase well-being of patients and dramatically widen access in low-income countries and regions that usually cannot afford advanced medical devices and expensive surgical interventions.
This conversation was moderated by Susana Freitas, Principal investigator at INESC-MN and Professor at the Physics Department at Instituto Superior Tecnico (IST – TU Lisbon)
Wouter Serdijn, Professor of Bioelectronics at Delft University of Technology
Jorge Fernandes, Senior Researcher at INESC ID and Professor of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of Instituto Superior Técnico (IST - TU Lisbon)
