From 18 to 20 May, the first edition of the Twente Health School took place at DesignLab. Under the theme Shaping the Future of Health: from concept to impact, PhD candidates, master's students and early-career researchers explored how technology, data and societal challenges are shaping the future of health.
During the three-day programme, participants engaged with topics such as AI in healthcare, data science, ethics, implementation and responsible innovation. Through keynotes, interactive sessions and hands-on workshops, they gained new insights and connected with researchers from a wide range of disciplines.
The Twente Health School, organised by the BMS Health research theme, received very positive feedback. No less than 87% of participants rated the programme as “very good” or “excellent”, while 80% said they would definitely recommend the Health School to colleagues and peers.
Following this successful first edition, the organisers look back on a promising start for the Twente Health School.
