Description:
This is the virtual launch event for the Future Blood Testing Network! The Future Blood Testing Network+ is a new Network funded by EPSRC. We are aiming to build a multi-disciplinary community to develop digital health technologies for remote, rapid, affordable and inclusive monitoring and personalised analytics.
Our first funding call will be to fund three projects to produce content for our landscape report that will provide the roadmap of developing new digital health systems to support real-time blood monitoring, self management and timely intervention in community health and care. Each report will include a systematic review of the key literature and involve interviewing key stakeholders to establish the current picture and identify the gaps.
The report will have three main streams:
- Future blood testing in healthcare practice: For example but not limited to: clinical needs, early adopters, challenges and opportunities, regulations, buy-in, user acceptance, existing and potential use cases for healthcare professionals and hospitals, patients, laboratories etc
- Remote blood processing and monitoring: For example but not limited to: sensing, imaging, point of care blood testing, portable and affordable , non-invasive, and other promising technologies for detecting blood biomarkers outside clinical settings
- ICT, Data, Analytics and AI: For example but not limited to: challenges and opportunities in entire data lifecycle from point of testing/monitoring, to linking in with NHS Systems and other healthcare Systems including aspects of ICT infrastructure, data security, trust, ethics, data quality, provenance etc, and the AI technologies and analytics methods required to create the personalised analytics in patient pathways
