The NHS has launched a mission to become world leaders in digital healthcare, and digital health saw a record $24 billion of investment in 2020. This acknowledges that digital health technologies have the potential to tackle many of the challenges faced by the healthcare system from infectious diseases to an ageing population and staff shortages.
Advanced monitoring technologies, virtual wards, and `hospital-at-home’ programmes are the future of healthcare, but this requires a new generation of digital health technologists, trained at the intersection of engineering, computing, data science and healthcare.
This course will produce highly skilled, multidisciplinary researchers and innovators in digital health.
You’ll receive a comprehensive training programme and pursue internationally leading research at the intersection of engineering, computing, data science and healthcare, to develop digital health technologies that have a positive impact on patients and society.
The course consists of four themes, covering all disease areas:
- Diagnostic and prognostic indications
- Treatment and care optimisation
- Disease tracking, surveillance and modelling
- Health data security, interoperability and sharing
