2021 Center for Digital Health Virtual Conference – Leveraging Digital Health for the Post-Pandemic World

During the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare systems, businesses, and governments across the world launched novel digital health tools to help keep people safe from COVID-19. But we also saw many metrics of our country’s behavioral health--ranging from mental illness to violence to opioid overdoses--worsen. Now is the time to deploy effective digital tools for these forgotten epidemics, as well.

To make progress, we must reinvent the methods and tools used for prevention and treatment. During the 2021 Center for Digital Health Virtual Conference - hosted by the Brown-Lifespan Center for Digital Health (CDH) in Providence, RI - we explored the cutting edge of design and implementation of ethical and effective digital health to reductions in mental illness, violence, and opioid use.

Panels and symposia explored some of the most promising innovations in these areas; discussed innovative digital measurements of loneliness, stress, and more; and dove deeply into questions of how clinicians, patients, communities, and technologists can collaboratively co-design products that enhance and expand prevention and treatment options. Learn from thought leaders, researchers, clinicians, computer scientists, and engineers to help set the stage for better digital health for the post-pandemic world.

Speakers ranged from world-renowned academic experts, to the FDA Digital Health Center of Excellence, to start-up founders, to healthcare system leaders, to investors.
