iHealth Connections

“The pharma of the future has the potential to be more than just about drugs – it can be a whole health and wellness provider – that is what joined-up healthcare is all about: innovation and technology in the fields of IT, medical diagnostics, remote-sensing multimedia and smart semantic analysis enabling fully joined-up healthcare – there will be closer links between all species in the healthcare ecosystem – including pharma.” Dr Steve Arlington, PricewaterhouseCoopers

Visionary Voices

iHealth Connections will publish independent expert opinion on the issues that will transform and connect life science and healthcare. Professionals who are uniquely positioned across the sectors will be asked to provide their perspectives on the platforms and industry solutions that will enable this transformation.
