About the Programme

The detailed programme will be shared closer to the event — but here’s what you can already look forward to. The Twente Health School offers an inspiring mix of keynotes, workshops, and interactive sessions designed to explore the full journey of data-driven health research, from ideas to implementation.

The Twente Health School takes you on a three-day exploration of how technology, data, and society shape the future of health. Each day combines scientific depth with interactive experiences, offering participants a full picture of the research pipeline — from conceptualization and design to evaluation and real-world implementation.

You’ll move between keynotes, lectures, and workshops led by international experts from academia and practice. Expect a mix of perspectives from data science, artificial intelligence, healthcare technology, human factors, ethics, and system evaluation.

Across the programme, participants will:

The Spring School blends inspiration with interaction. Sessions range from thought-provoking keynotes to small-group workshops and hands-on demonstrations. Participants will also engage in short pitch sessions, social activities, and networking opportunities designed to foster interdisciplinary collaboration.

An optional fourth day includes a visit to Amsterdam, where participants can explore cultural highlights in one of Europe’s most vibrant cities.

Activities
1. Interdisciplinary learning experience

Discover how technology, data, and society intersect in shaping the future of health. Re:Health brings together researchers from engineering, social sciences, and health domains to inspire new ways of thinking and collaborating.

2. From theory to real-world impact

Move beyond the classroom — through hands-on workshops, case studies, and simulation sessions, you’ll learn how to translate research into real solutions that make a difference in healthcare practice and policy.

3. Engage with leading experts

Gain insights directly from international academics and practitioners working at the forefront of health, data, and technology. The Twente Health School offers rare opportunities to exchange ideas and receive feedback on your own work.

4. Build your professional network

Meet peers from across Europe and beyond. Through social activities, pitch sessions, and interactive discussions, you’ll connect with a dynamic community of early-career researchers who share your curiosity and ambition.

5. Experience innovation in context

Hosted at the University of Twente’s DesignLab — a creative hub for responsible innovation — the Spring School immerses you in the Dutch ecosystem of health and technology. An optional day in Amsterdam adds a cultural dimension to your experience.
