The Marqués de Valdecilla Research Institute (IDIVAL) is collaborating in the 3rd Conference on Technologies and Innovation Applied to Health, organised by the Cantabria Association of Economists, which will be held on 16 May at the Cantabria Labs headquarters (La Concha de Villaescusa).

The event will bring together professionals from the healthcare, technology, academic and hospital management fields to discuss the challenges and opportunities offered by the use of Big Data, Artificial Intelligence and digitalisation in improving healthcare and advancing towards personalised, patient-centred medicine.

The conference, starting at 9:30 a.m., will feature an opening lecture and two expert panel discussions. Marcos López Hoyos, Scientific Director of IDIVAL, will be in charge of closing the session from 12:30 p.m. onwards.

In addition, several professionals linked to our institute will participate as speakers in the scheduled panel discussions:

  • Rocío Montalbán, Deputy Director General for Digital Transformation at the Cantabrian Ministry of Health, and member of the IDIVAL Immunopathology Group.

This forum, which is free to attend with prior registration, aims to serve as a space for reflection and debate on the impact of new technologies in healthcare, as well as an opportunity to foster synergies among the various stakeholders involved in healthcare innovation.

The 3rd Conference on Technologies and Innovation Applied to Health is also supported by the Ministry of Health of the Government of Cantabria, Cantabria Labs, the Official College of Pharmacists, the College of Physicians of Cantabria, and Banco Sabadell.
