Innovation Impacting Society - A Collective Effort
Dr Isabel Van De Keere |
TEDxUCLWomen
• December 2018
Dr Isabel Van De Keere is the Founder and CEO of Immersive Rehab, a healthtech startup which uses immersive artificial intelligence to help patient recovery. Isabel’s talk explores how technological innovation impacts society as a collective. Perhaps more importantly, Isabel invites us to see how failing to ensure that underrepresented groups are involved in the creation of new technology and healthcare developments is an injustice.
Isabel places her own perspective in the context of clinical trials around heart disease in the 1990’s and in the recent development of menstruation applications. She asks us to question how innovation can beneficially impact society if we are not fully represented in the process of creating and testing new technology?
