Ideation and Health Design Thinking

When: Thursday, March 2, 2023 4:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

Guest speaker: Dr. Joseph Ferenbok

As healthcare systems around the globe struggle to expand access, improve patient outcomes, and control increasing costs, health design thinking offers a human-centered approach for designing healthcare products and services.

This workshop tackles the process of developing new concepts or ideas that are designed to address well-defined clinical needs. Topics that will be covered include:

  • why ideation matters to innovation and new product development;
  • ideation methods; and
  • methods for finding the best ideas among a large quantity of ideas.

The workshop also includes a group brainstorming activity where attendees will break into groups and will be guided through a series of brainstorming methods to develop a new medical device concept.
