It will be the conference “The Health Care (R)evolution: ‘Innovabiomed’ 2018-2021. Where we were, where we are going and what the COVID-19 emergency has taught us” will open the second edition of “Innovabiomed” tomorrow, Friday, July 2, at 9.30 am in Auditorium Verdi.
Among the speakers at the conference is Walter Ricciardi, Professor of Hygiene and Public Health at the Faculty of Medicine of the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in Rome, Scientific Advisor to the Minister of Health for the coronavirus pandemic, who stresses:
“The biomedical sector is experiencing continuous and disruptive innovation. Network places like ‘Innovabiomed’ are important because they seek to take stock of innovation and guide the choice of sustainable solutions. Technological innovation can bring important innovations in all fields, starting from prevention, at the same time genomic transformation and digital transformation are opening incredible scenarios regarding prevention itself, diagnostics, treatment and rehabilitation. There is no sector that is immune to these enormous scientific advances. What is needed is innovation on the one hand and management on the other, done in a forward-looking manner.”
