Hear how a one-of-a-kind non-profit genomics research institute is leveraging its multi-cloud strategy to open access to its research in order to drive precision medicine from research to clinical application.
In this complimentary podcast hear Dan Trott, Healthcare Field Director, Dell EMC as he speaks with Shane Rodabaugh, Executive Director of IT Infrastructure, Baptist Health, on how Baptist Health is transforming its technology, people and processes to become a digital leader in today’s evolving healthcare landscape.
This podcast will include a short recap of data collected from a research study commissioned by Dell Technologies in which the views of healthcare business leaders weighed in on the future, and how they intend to realize their own digital transformation in the next few years. Hear how digital disruptors from AI to cloud to IoT are causing healthcare organizations to rethink how they operate, how diseases are treated, and what a future enriched with intelligent and interactive connections means for them and their patients. Our experts reflect on these findings in relation to the current state, what challenges exist, and why healthcare is poised to leapfrog ahead of other industries over the coming decade.
Join Dave Dimond, Chief Technology Officer at Dell EMC Healthcare and featured guest speaker, Bryce Olson, Global Marketing Director at Intel as we uncover some insights from one person’s journey to fight cancer on his own terms.
This should drive home how technology can help improve outcomes through Precision Medicine. This may not be a familiar topic to many of you. However, we are going to take this conversation up to the next level and have a pragmatic discussion around Precision Medicine and how to use genetic and biomarker information to make treatment decisions for patients as individuals. During this discussion, we are also going to discuss how technology plays a role.
The last podcast in this series looks at current opportunities presented by advancements in Precision Medicine. How are healthcare organizations and patients learning to leverage the knowledge locked in our genes? And how can this knowledge become a real opportunity today?
Join Jennifer Girka, healthcare strategist within Dell EMC’s Healthcare & Life Sciences division, as she provides an introduction to precision medicine. Girka is responsible for providing strategic insight to help Dell EMC advance its support of healthcare organizations, medical professionals and patients as they transform healthcare into the digital era. With more than 20 years helping to advance the healthcare industry with new opportunities and emerging technology, she works closely with healthcare customers and practitioners to bring them the right mix of technology innovation and solutions that will help them navigate through the ever-changing and increasingly complex world of healthcare.
This podcast explores one key question: Who owns/profits from the data? This is a key question today for electronic medical records, and a question that has no straight answer. So now that we add genetic data to these EMRs, will this data have to be managed differently? Imagine how better informed patients will react. Imagine if this data were to be misused to create discrimination or to prevent treatments and/or coverage. Imagine if this data can be used globally to better understand the human race.

In this podcast, we will review some of the ideas we shared in our previous podcasts on this series. We will also provide insights into what is new, what is driving the most current state of change and what we see as the next potential drivers that will enable a not-too-distant future where Precision Medicine is a more personal approach to predictable medicine for all.
Deploying a Connected Health initiative need not be a major undertaking for healthcare providers. For beginners, the first step is to integrate the siloed clinical data that exists throughout the enterprise. Small use cases that provide immediate return on investment, such as improving access to specialized care in the emergency room, should be the next step. For healthcare organizations that are further down the road of Connected Health, implementing a population health initiative, such as targeting a population with chronic disease, makes good use of connectivity and care across the continuum. Partnering with a technology partner can help both beginners and veterans for the overall goal of delivering Connected Health.
