The theme for ODI Meetup #7 is "Give us our health data"
Building on the health data meetup that took place in March, we will be hearing from some great speakers about how open health data can save lives and drive innovation. We'll also have a panel discussion on open health data to see how we can overcome some of the challenges.
We are incredibly honoured to have Dave deBronkart - aka e-Patient Dave, who gave the seminal "Let Patients Help" Ted talk with the "Gimme my damn data" rap, joining us for a Google Hangout.
This meetup will be facilitated by Niall O'Neill
Guest speakers and panelists include:
- E-Patient Dave
- Roisin Doherty, Health Intelligence Unit, HSE
- Daragh O'Brien, Data Protection Consultant
- Leonora O'Brien, Pharmapod
- Howard Johnson, Health Intelligence Unit, HSE
