Episode Description
Digital health solutions are on the rise. Now X PRIZE Foundation is challenging innovators to create a wireless device that monitors and diagnoses health conditions, and is able to make reliable health diagnoses available directly to consumers in their homes. It also aims to change the way healthcare solutions are developed, by involving consumers in the process. Can this become a powerful tool to help alleviate our healthcare crisis by empowering consumers? Are the technologies and medical communities today ready for a radical change? Mark Winter, Senior Director at X Prize Foundation, will join me to discuss the potential impact and vision for the $10 million global competition to stimulate innovation and integration of precision diagnostic technologies.
