Hello there, Digital Health enthusiasts! 🙌
In this edition of Digital Health Buzz! 🚀📰 we delve into the exciting crossroads of health, technology, and innovation. First up, we have Foxo's game-changing venture 🌐💬 — a unified clinical communication platform with built-in patient chat capabilities. Changing how patients interact with healthcare providers, this technology has demonstrated significant improvements in patient engagement and service delivery. 👩⚕️💼
Next, we're thrilled to share about CytoNest's leap forward in sustainable meat growth research 🧪🍖. They have secured a USDA grant to develop a revolutionary, edible 3D scaffold for the production of cell-cultured meat, a move that could potentially revolutionize our food industry! 🌱💡
Last but not least, we bring you insights from the upcoming panel discussion 🎙️💡 hosted by Dominican University New York on the pivotal role of information technology in public health. Learn from industry experts about the importance of informatics in addressing healthcare issues and emergency response in the post-COVID landscape. 🌐🔬
Let's dive in! 🚀🌟
Foxo, an Australian-based provider of secure clinical communication and collaboration tools, has launched a patient-facing module called Patient Chat that aims to revolutionize patient-provider communication. The platform facilitates secure, efficient interactions between patients and healthcare providers, allowing patients to request information, schedule or modify appointments, and access clinical information without the need for traditional communication methods like phone calls or emails. Integrated with Microsoft Teams, it allows seamless communication without requiring a Microsoft account from the patient. The introduction of this technology at Medscan, a Sydney-based medical imaging and radiology service provider, has demonstrated immediate benefits including reduced call waiting times and improved service delivery. Foxo's CEO, Luke Fletcher, emphasizes the importance of such innovation in enhancing patient engagement and optimizing operational processes.
CytoNest, a biotechnology company specializing in edible scaffolding for cell-based meat and seafood cultures, has secured a grant from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to develop an innovative nanofiber-based, edible 3D scaffold platform for the large-scale production of cell-cultured meat products. The company aims to use the grant to create single filament polymeric nanofibers with precise alignment and built-in vasculature in 3D scaffolds, which would provide an ideal environment for cellular and tissue growth, overcoming challenges that have limited the commercial viability of cell-cultured meat. The scaffold will allow the production of meat-specific product lines that closely mimic the tissue structure and texture of various meat products.
Dominican University New York, in partnership with the Palisades Institute, is hosting a panel discussion to explore the impact of information technology on public health issues and emergency response, particularly in the post-COVID landscape. The panel, featuring experts like Lisa Lewis from the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), will delve into the developments in public health informatics and their role in shaping emergency response to public health concerns. This comes in the wake of the university's launch of a new Public Health Informatics and Technology (PHIT) undergraduate and post-baccalaureate certificate program, funded by a Workforce Development grant from the ONC. The event aims to provide insights into how IT can help tackle complex healthcare and emergency response issues.
